Don't forget that if Dave is running his z/VM system on IFL engines and
not CP ones, he'll need to license ISPF via the special bids process. I
don't have a clue how one does that; contact your IBM or Business
Partner for advice.
Have a good one.

Yes, if ISPF wasn't on your SDO tapes, you'll need to order it. You can
get it on ShopZSeries and probably via internet delivery as a Program
Product "envelope". Or a real tape, but not a reel tape.

What I have is the z/VM 5.4 SDO media. If I need an additional ISPF
product tape, I will need to order it.
Thanks,

Subject: Re: ISPF Post-z/VM Installation
ISPF for VM is one of those "semi-VMSES/E" products. It's so old it
predates the rigourous methodology of VMSES/E and had its own install
method based on an install tool EXEC from earlier versions of VM.
The z/VM 5.4 SDO Directory
http://www.vm.ibm.com/sdo/sdozv54.pdf
has a section on installing ISPF and describes the "semi-VMSES/E"
procedure, Page 134.
You'll also need the ISPF Program Directory, you can find it here:
http://publibfi.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/i1114480.pdf
This will help when you go to build the ISPF DCSS.
And, I presume you have the ISPF product tape.
