Re: V5R4 to V6R1 ANZOBJCVN ?

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

As has been answered, yes, that will be fine. Here is a summary of what 
will convert -

1. It was created on at least V5R1 - starting with that release, the 
creation template is always kept with the program, even when you remove 
observability. This was not true before that release.

2. Observability was not completely removed - *CRTDTA was not removed 
is, I believe, what this means. CHGPGM at V5R1 still says you can remove 
this, but it doesn't strip it completely.

No source needed - it's all in the program object.

The Redbook that Mark recommended is the last word on this.

Be sure your vendors have brought their products up to speed - we, for 
example, have a list on our website of the products that are compatible 
with V6R1. I hope others have done the same.
