I HIGHLY recommend the image catalog. We had a bad CD and this was nice to find out prior to loading the 10 CD's before it. The other programmers who hung around during the load loved it. No sticking in of CD's at all. No having to wait for the light to stop blinking prior to answering the message in QSYSOPR, etc. Now, when you start talking about storing V5R3, cumes, groups, etc all in the image catalog, you better have about 5GB of disk to allocate for this. But it's only temporary.

Do what Al says, which is basically, read the install manual, read it again, choose your install method, do a dry walk-through, then do the real install, and do every step. Check them off as you go. It's fussy but will almost guarantee a pain-free install. This includes clean up -- permanent applies of PTFs, etc. If you are a little brave, you could use virtual CD - image catalogs. It saves plugging in CDs during the install. But if you have never used them, this may not be the time to learn. We are a development house and I could afford to - production shops have to be more careful, not dareful (as I first typed it). And you have a full system backup, right? If not, do it.
