Martha, I have gotten the SLES 10 SP1 starter system to successfully install here (z/VM 5.3, running on a significantly smaller system than your z9). Here, the NOV151 VMARC file is exactly 2,213,447,520 bytes in size; 27668094 80 byte records.
I did have a bit of trouble uploading the NOV151 VMARC file, as I used IND$FILE instead of the documented FTP process. IND$FILE, for some reason, simply would not complete the upload.....but when I used the FTP approach, it worked fine. Martha McConaghy wrote:
Has anyone on the list tried installing the SLES10 SP1 starter system? I'm trying it for the first time and its going OK except for one problem. The 151 disk image, NOV151 VMARC, won't unpack. It churned all yesterday afternoon on our z/9 and never finished. So, I moved it over to our development machine and let it churn all night, still it isn't done. Its a 2G file, so I expected it to take a long time, but this is crazy. Has anyone gotten this to work? I'm under the gun for a deadline right now, so can't afford to wait if this isn't going to work.
