This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

The quantity of CDs for RD/z is somewhat ridiculous (I think that 7.6 has 58 CDs). A much more preferable option would be to put the client CDs onto a portable harddrive. The install should be modified (if necessary) so that after all upfront selections have been made that the install proceeds with no further user intervention. Another feature of the install should be to record this process so that any other PCs could then be kicked off from the recorded file. I know that silent installs are possible currently...I'm talking about the user being optionally led through this process during the install.
