My latest issue is during an alt_disk_install from tape I got the following error after all the data had been restored.
I now see that the version on the old mksysb tape is 5200-03 and the version on CD and installed on the DR server I have is 5200-09.
Does this mean I need to use the older 5200-03 CD? If so how do I get it as we are missing CD1 of that set.
