Going through the specs and seeing that there are base, optional base and
additional disk units. What is the difference between them? Does it matter
where LIC will be installed?

Careful on the disk features. If you order a FC #6718 for example you'll
get the correct Disk Unit but in a sled for a 270 not a 250. You'll want a
FC 6818 for this machine.

Also be careful on O/S, I can't recall fore sure if V5R3 supported the
35GB Version for example. (I think so but I've slept since then... :-) )

Hello list,

I'm trying to revive an old 9406-250 system. It had no hard disks, so I
bought a non-ibm (hitachi) ultra320 scsi disk. When I boot V5R3 from a
cd
and try to install LIC, the system complains that there is no specific
load
source unit (type 6718), which imho was present on the system in the
past.

Can LIC be installed on any hard disk or it must be an ibm disk (type
6718) or the original load source disk (which I don't have)? Not sure
if
it's an issue, but when I check hardware resources using DST there is
nothing related to the new hard disk, optical and tape devices are
visible.
All other menus e.g. work with disk units report that there are no
non-configured disks. Any ideas?
