When you order z/OS 2.5 (or after if you have already done so), you need to
order the COD package (you can do it from ShopZseries directly and get it
electronically in under a day), which is a pre-built z/OS 2.3 (not 2.5 yet)
system (with z/OSMF pre-installed) that you restore to a single

Hi Alain,
If you are going to install zOS v2.5 under zVM and you do not have zOS v2.3 or
later versions of zOS that you can use as a driver system, you will need to
order a driver for the installation of zOS v2.5.
This driver (or COD as it is called) can be ordered with zOS v2.5 free of
Order and restore COD. Define a virtual machine to match the I/O definitions of
the COD and IPL. Order CBPDO or whatever and follow the instructions. The
driver system will be the COD.

COD is not the same as Systempac. COD is not meant to be, and is not supported
as, a production system; it is soley intended for building a new system on
another set of voluimes.

OK.

Al,
It seems to be called « systempac »in the doc and it seems to be a paid option
as you say.
I imagine i should ask to add db2 and the other products the client needs…

Alain,
IBM will build you something you can boot from and get started with. I believe
you need to contact your support person to get started. They will need to know
if your are going to run under zVM, or boot it directly within an LPAP. Will
probably need information on your auxiliary hardware

Hi,
A client wants to install a z/OS 2.5 on a z13s with nothing else than a z/VM on
it.
I try to find the steps I should play to be able to IPL the z/OS. I just find
how to succeed an upgrade from a previous z/OS...
I can't find the clear method to do it from scratch...
Thanks

Is it possible to copy LDS dataset using IDCAMS REPRO? (manual is clear
- yes)
I mean CI level operations, since there are no records inside.
Control Intervals are "EF-agnostic", so the source can be non-EF and
target can be EF.
So, wouldn't be possible dss would use IDCAMS under the cover?
What I like about my "garbage language":
since 2011 it is "my garbage language";
I can add new control statements to it and thus eliminate the need for gotos
most of the time, because the old use cases of goto now have new solutions
(similar to C). And for many other needs like string handling,
