Re: AS400 software upgrade

I do not have a clue about moving serial numbers around.

I seem to recall issues years ago with model changes that
were called "upgrades" but were really box swaps and
folks needed the serial number to be moved. I do not
remember how that worked.

I am thinking that if they're willing to swap out a box for one that runs
the V5R2 to 6.1 range then they're going to end up with a new serial
number. Does IBM still sell boxes that span V5R2 to 6.1? That's limited
to: 9406-800, 810, 825, 870, 890. Wouldn't an IBM upgrade be the only
way to retain serial number?
