You should be able to apply SI28697.  Are all the pre-reqs for this PTF
applied AND ACTIVE?

What cumulative level were you on before you started all this?

PRE  5722999  545  MF42601   
PRE  5722999  545  MF43157   
PRE  5722999  545  MF43526

B2924_01 does show to mount ok, vol cap shows at 4.5gig. All looks ok.
 
I'm coming from 5.4.5, I find PTF MF42601 and MF43157 already applied. I
also find SI28697 ( supersceded by SI35849). But I don't find SI35849. I
downloaded SI35849 and tried to apply, but said not applied. Possible
reasons were either it was already there or it applied to a non-existent
product.

Buddy,

    When I have seen this before, the DVD is B2924_01 wasn't found in
the set.  Can you work with the image catalogue ad make sure this volume can
be "mounted" as a test.   Also, to test that your image is good, did you do
a GO LICPGM, take option 5, and then select the first option on that screen
and run through building what licensed programs for the next release?  It
should be able to read the image in the *IMGCLG and select the base
components of of i5/OS, extended base, QGPL, and QUSRSYS.  If it does, you
are reading that image.

    As long as you have the PTFs listed (are you coming from V5R4M0 or
V5R4M5 make sure you have the right MF PTFs).

    Pete

Good Day all,

I am upgrading from V5R4 to V6R1. I have the CD/DVD set ( I_base_01,
B2924_01 and 02, F_multi_NLV ). 

I listened to the Common session by Mr Massiello, and went over the handout.
I have checked the PTF's listed in II14310 ( there is some confusion between
SI28697 and SI35849). 

I loaded the CD/DVD's into the image catalog, went through the 'Prepare to
Install' options, the images in the catalog look right, software agreements
all accepted. 

When I verify, I get failure. Required image for type *upgrade not found in
image catalog.
Reason 2 says 'An i5/OS image was not found'

Have I failed to investigate the PTF's completely? 

When I tried to ptf copy SI35849 ( I already have SI28697 and the other 2
listed on II 14310 ) , it will not copy with the msg, either the PTF is
already applied or the requisite product is not installed. 

I'm sure it is just a step in the process that I am not getting.
