to download PTFs we use Internet Service Delivery, that is, RECEIVE ORDER.
Simply great, no manual steps at all as with ShopzSeries.
I downloaded my z/OS 1.9 using the CustomPac dialog jobs, and I find it also
very good. The job to download the order had to be restarted a couple of times
(timeout, IIRC), but this was the only manual intervention required.
I find the whole process far better than tapes.
