Re: Install PTF Group

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

While I would agree it could be handy to have such an option on that 
menu it's so much easier than you make it sound.

Two general paths you can take.

1) Order the group on Fix Central for download as .bin image.
2) Download the images to your IFS
3) Add that image to an image catalog
4) Use the image catalog in option 8 of GO PTF or INSPTF command.

Second option

1) Order the group for direct download to your system with fix central 
or with SNDPTFORD.
2) Use *SERVICE in GO PTF Option 8 or INSPTF command.

In general do whatever you do with the CUME but instead of SF99vrm 
substitute the approrate group number for SF99vrm.
