Or directly 'ftp get to zVM minidisk' -----Original Message----- From: Smith, Ann (CTO Service Delivery) Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 8:44 PM To: 'Linux on 390 Port' Subject: RE: SLES11 SP2 install procedures for zseries
On the server can I 'ftp get' the file directly from the Novell/SuSE site? -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Scott Rohling Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2012 8:38 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SLES11 SP2 install procedures for zseries You could ftp the iso to a server and then mount it as a filesystem.. for example: mount -o loop -r sles11.iso /mnt You then need either the server to allow access via ftp, nfs, or even http.. so you can point the other servers to it as the source for the upgrade media. I could be misunderstanding what you need though..
