It was a few months ago, but I remember also having to IPL to complete the expansion of the load source.

Jim,

Go to licpgm menu and take option 5. Then the last option in the menu to provide the LIC space.

I am sure that Justin is following directions. He did find the note about load source size.
However, are the directions telling you to do that again? For awhile they were telling you to do it manually. I wonder if these were temp instructions while waiting for a PTF to update the option to check load source size?

You have to understand menus and GUI's were so last decade. The command line is king now. Just look at how much you have to do at the command line in "Enhanced" HMC now.

Justin:
As I pointed out the 70GB drive minimum is really just a hard number they
came up with because at the time, it was the smallest drive sold.
What you really need is sufficient space on that load source drive to add
the LIC space that will be needed. So if your load source drive is a 70GB
drive, and you have 20% of space available on it, you should be good to
go.
Go to licpgm menu and take option 5. Then the last option in the menu to
provide the LIC space.

So that 70 GB requirement is for temp space, not permanently allocated
space?
WRKDSKSTS shows 139594 M for each unit.
