I mentioned in a previous post in this thread that I'd seen mention of a way to convert from the old job scheduler (officially referred to as the OS/400 or i5/OS Job Scheduler). I found what I'd seen at http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/i/software/jscheduler/support.html

"5. When converting jobs from OS/400 or i5/OS Job Scheduler entries to the IBM Advanced Job Scheduler, do the following:

* Enter: GO JS
* Select: Option 5 (System controls)
* Select Option 7 (Work with Operating System job schedule entries)
* Most jobs will convert. Jobs that will not convert include:
o jobs with omit dates
o jobs specifying a system profile (QSECOFR, QSYS, etc) as the
User Profile.
* If you remove the omit dates by specifying *NONE on the OS/400 or
i5/OS Job Scheduler entry, your job should then convert. Specify a
non-system profile, and those jobs will convert. You may need to
create a new User Profile with similar authorities to the System
Profile to get these jobs to function as designed. You may also
need to create a holiday calendar and change the job to use the
calendar in order to omit the correct dates."


Note that there are no warnings about activation groups or the job ccsid. Having just tried it I can state that at v5r4 it does not issue any warnings before, during or after the conversion.
