greetings,
Did a cummulative ptf load after a v4r4
install.
The cummulative ptf's were on 3 cd's. The
system is a very fast, non geared down 720.
The cover letter said the ptf process would
take from 4 to 8 hours.
But it actually took 1 hour
to load, apply and complete the auto ipl. ( 17:57:31 to
18:47:50 )
The history log msgs ( listed below ) show no
indication of error.
What does ibm base its time estimates
on?
This is not a trivial question.
Misstating the estimate results in much wasted time double and triple checking
to make sure that nothing was missed, that the system is running
ok.
