Who is better qualified to answer a problem if you've just solved it on your own? And now your answer is in the archives for anyone else to search and find! Good show! Besides, *none* of us have ever had an insight into a problem five seconds after pressing SEND, right? (I avoid this by not thinking for five seconds after pressing SEND.

installing z/VM 5.3 from minidisk
Greetings, esteemed listmembers. I am attempting to install z/VM 5.3 from DVD to ECKD (3390-3), second level, using minidisk instead of FTP. I have a minidisk, accessed as filemode W, full of files like the following: CKD5000A IMAGEW1 F 1028780196 7/10/07 16:44:36 CKD50009 IMAGEW1 F 1028 4080 1024 7/10/07 16:44:36 CKD50008 IMAGEW1 F 1028 4080 1024 7/10/07 16:44:34 (...c.) I have followed the instructions in the Guide for Automated Installation and Service for V5R3. I run DVDPRIME and INSTPLAN, and everything looks good for installing to ECKD until I try to run INSTDVD, when I get this error: HCPIDV8300E FILE FBA22200 IMAGE W NOT FOUND, HCPIDV8376E INSTDVD EXEC ENDED IN ERROR, Ready(00100);, Note the unexpected reference to an FBA installation file. Why would that happen? Here's the relevant excerpt from my console, showing what I assume is a full ECKD prep, followed by an FBA failure: access c DMSACC724I replaces C (22CC) Ready; listfile instpipe module * INSTPIPE MODULE C1 Ready; dvdprime 3390 (disk HCPDVP8440I NOW LOADING 22CC DISK ECKDREST: WROTE 75 TRACKS ON 22CC, RC=0 HCPDVP8440I NOW LOADING 2CF1 DISK ECKDREST: WROTE 1800 TRACKS ON 2CF1, RC=0 HCPDVP8392I DVDPRIME EXEC ENDED SUCCESSFULLY Ready; access 22cc c DMSACC724I 22CC replaces C (22CC) Ready; instplan HCPIPX8475I THE PRODUCTS YOU SELECTED TO LOAD TO MINIDISK ARE: VM RSCS TCPIP OSA ICKDSF DIRM RACF PERFTK VMHCD THE PRODUCTS YOU SELECTED TO LOAD TO SFS ARE: NONE THE SYSTEM DEFAULT LANGUAGE SELECTED: AMENG THE DASD TYPE YOU SELECTED TO LOAD ON IS: 3390 Mod 3 THE DASD NEEDED TO LOAD z/VM ARE: 520RES 520SPL 520PAG 520W01 520W02 HCPINP8392I INSTPLAN EXEC ENDED SUCCESSFULLY Ready; q accessed Mode Stat Files Vdev Label/Directory A R/W26 191 DSK291 C R/W50 22CC MNT2CC D R/O 869 192 DVD530 S R/O 1265 190 MNT490 W R/O 869 192 DVD530 Y/SR/O 2468 19E MNT19E Ready; instdvd HCPIDV8300E FILE FBA22200 IMAGE W NOT FOUND HCPIDV8376E INSTDVD EXEC ENDED IN ERROR Ready(00100); Hopefully somebody can help shed some light on what I might be doing wrong.

Re: installing z/VM 5.3 from minidisk
Ok, totally tacky, following up on my own message, but I got my problem solved, after banging my head against a co-worker for a few minutes. It turns out having files lying around on your 191 from old second-level installs (like 5.2, 5.1, ... *cough* ...4.1) plays havoc with this whole process. INSTPLAN is not picky about which filemode $INST$ $FILE$ is on, and found a copy from our 5.2 upgrade in filemode A to read and update. INSTDVD EXEC is picky and expects it to be on filemode C, where it had been untouched by INSTPLAN. I started over with a clean 191 and it works (is working now) great That was a fun one.

Ray, Now that all the excitement has passed, open a PMR, or submit a Reader Comment Form relating your experience so that others don't get to share the fun -- save it all for yourself (and help the next newbie without access to your co-worker).
