As someone already mentioned, z/VM 5.1 can be installed from the HMC via
the DVD version only. As to the level of the HMC required, that depends
on the hardware platform:
zSeries 800
Support Element version 1.7.3
Engineering Change (EC) J11213, change level 146 or higher
must be active.
zSeries 890
Support Element version 1.8.2
No Licensed Internal Code changes are required.
zSeries 900
Support Element versions less than 1.7.3 - loading of z/VM from DVD
is NOT possible
Support Element version 1.7.3
Engineering Change (EC) J11213, change level 146 or higher
must be active.
zSeries 990
Support Element version 1.8.0
Engineering Change (EC) J12560, change level 054 or higher
must be active.
Support Element version 1.8.2
No Licensed Internal Code changes are required.
