Same problem if RLST5794 is specified. If I specify RPTF0194, it works.
And I thought that the S in RSU was Service. How silly of me to try to
treat the RSU as a service envelope :-) I am sure that Chuckie would
say, "There is 'service' and there is 'Service'." The RLST file that was
downloaded apparently serves no function other than to perhaps act as a
readme file.
Thanks,

Use the VMFINS command for RSU files. VMFREC is for corrective
service envelopes.
vmfins install info (nomemo env RLST5794

Subject: z/VM 5.3 vs. RSU
I have done a DDR restore of the 5.3 system and am in the throes
of applying the current RSU. To this end, I have FTPd the files from IBM
to my VM system with the following results:
1. There were three files
* A small file containing the byte counts for the
other two files
* A file named RLST5794 BIN
* A file named RPTF1094 BIN
2. The byte counts for the two BIN files were correct.
3. I used DETERSE to unpack the files, making the unpacked files
filetype SERVLINK
When I enter the command "vmfrec info (env rlst5794", the result
is the message DMSWPD1452S. Help describes this error as:
Explanation: A record was encountered in the envelope
file that has a prefix
identifying it as a VMFPLCD control record, but the
record is not a group
separator record or a file header record.
I can see no such VMFPLCD control record header in the file
unless a line containing only "()' qualifies. The string "plc", case
insensitive, is nowhere in the file. If I look at the RPTF file, every
record begins with x'02' followed by "PLC".
Have I missed something? Is my RLST file corrupt?
