Re: z/VM GDDM install

On the z/OS Internet
Librarypage:
I see this text (which says it applies to z/OS and doesn't mention z/VM):

> *z/OS licensed publications* *Beginning with z/OS V1R7.0, there are no

It makes me wonder if there is an similar orderable collection for z/VM.

Hello Roger,

correct, this manual / PDF should have been included on the installation

I was under the impression that licensed ("L") manuals had all gone
away. Is that true only for z/OS, or is it that this is an old manual,
or am I just wrong?

Since you are licensed and the product is still in service, open a PMR and
ask for a copy, indicating that you are unable to order it via the IBM
Publications website.
