Symptom
P2.40
ISETUPPD The input High Level Qualifier provided does not point to any product files. It is not possible to run the installation when the base set of files do not exist. Press enter and provide another Current base HLQ value.
Problem
Installation of a z/OS PDS deployed server receives the error message above during the ISETUP panels.
Solution
The PDS installation has specific naming conventions for the installation dataset High-Level Qualifier (HLQ). In this case, datasets need to have the HLQ..P.HOME naming convention, however, the user was using HLQ..F.HOME. Changing the F to a P resolved the issue.
