Should work.  Create a share on your PC.  (Can you share drive D:?)  Load 
the CD into your PC.  addimgclge '/qntc/mypc/myshare...  or some 
derivative thereof.

I do this from one iSeries to another without the PC though.

Re: Image catalogs






This is a timely discussion.   It's all new to me, but I've been
tasked to make this whole process a little more streamlined.  I've
seen it done once, and I have some directions, but my examples show
ftping images directly to the IFS, or moving images from one iseries
to another - none of these involve using a PC cdrom drive to read the
disk.

Here is the situation:

Our iseries is off-site - in a service bureau in a cage.  It is
difficult to get to and we'd prefer not to have to have access to the
CD drive every time we want to use it.

the CD isn't just for ptfs and the like, we use it for updates to some
of our packaged software etc. as well.

my goal would be to copy the CD image to the IFS from a PC over the
network, then run the steps to load it into the virtural drive from
there.  Is that kosher?

If so, I'm confident I can wrap the rest of it up to streamline the 
process.

Thanks,

Rick
