RE: V4R5 UPGRADE questions - 2nd

Well, were you at the latest cume level before you upgraded?  If not, how far
back.

In my case, I'm not certain what cume level this particular V4R3 box is at.
Following is a screen shot of the first display of DSPPTF with no parameters
specified:

              Display PTF Status
                                System:   S1024122
 Product ID  . . . . . . . :   5769999
 IPL source  . . . . . . . :   ##MACH#B
 Release of base option  . :   V4R3M0 L00

 Type options, press Enter.
  5=Display PTF details  6=Print cover letter ...

                                                  More...

Normally, I'd expect TLyyddd entries to tell me which cume level is applied.
Is that what the REyyddd entries are on V4R3?

Also, you mentioned the hardware model number.  Does that have any bearing on
upgrading to a new release?

Dan,
I've upgraded a 170 from V4R3 to V4R5 with zero problems.  I needed to apply
no PTF's prior to upgrading.
