    Hi,

    I was going to download TL9SP2 for AIX 5.3 using "using Bulk FTP" method and met problem, that one file from the list is not downloadable (U823340.bff - the last one on ftp list):

    ftp://download2.boulder.ibm.com/ecc/hsb/H04023415

    So, I have repeated the procedure so new ftp links (new ftp url) had been generated for me and now the file is downloadable:

    ftp://download2.boulder.ibm.com/ecc/hsb/H04029006

    Q. Is the Fixcentral's ftp download method reliable then?
    kind regards, K.

    I have also noticed, that size of all (properly) downloaded bff files from the ftp is not the equal to a given Total: on the site:

    Package list
    Service Pack 5300-09-02-0849------------------------->219,092,480 bytes
    Technology Level 5300-09-00-0846------------------>2,515,899,904 bytes
    ------------------------------------------Total----------->2,734,992,384 bytes

    In fact, total size of all downloaded *.bff files (from the ftp url generated by a robot) is 2,603,219,968 bytes.

    Is that Total: something to be ignored?
