Thanks for the reply, We do have SWMA for our machines

We have 5 machines (one for each OS we support 7.1, 6.1, 5.4, 5.3, 5.2)
I will have to re-arrange their OS so we can continue to have a machine for
each OS Release/version. Time to go pull paperwork and see what license keys
we have for what machines and start re-arranging.

What a pain! live and learn


John

You need unique keys for each release. So the question is, do you have SWMA
(Software Maintenance) for this machine? If yes, you can get the V5R4 keys,
and then upgrade to V5R2 and within 70 days upgrade to V5R4 and put the keys
(V5R4) in which will be perm keys.

Subject: Do I need NEW license keys everytime I upgrade my IBM OS

I wanted to upgrade the OS on one of our old machines from V5R1 to V5R2 I
have all the CDS but I can't find any license keys.

I know it's too late to request them from IBM.

If I am not installing anything new, just upgrading from V5R1 to V5R2 will I
need new License keys for V5R2?



Can I use WRKLICINF and DSPLICKEY on V5R1 to print off the license keys for
V5R1 and use them after I upgrade to V5R2



Thanks



John
