Yeah, except I have to include lots of mods - VTAPE and VPARS from VSSI,
Rules Facility from VM:Secure, hardware related mods from HDS. I guess
I can use SERVICE and PUT2PROD and then add the mods.

Or, if there was really no error in the downloaded file (but it
seems that there was), and if you meet the requirements for the VMSES
"SERVICE" command. It's terrific, applying even RSU's in one swell
foop. E.g.

Re: z/VM 5.3 vs. RSU
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?
Regards,
Richard Schuh
