Re: Upgrade to 7.1 TR10 from 5.4

Regarding the temp vs perm apply of ptfs before an upgrade. I recall
reading here that if you leave PTFs in temp state you might end up having
orphan save files that do not get deleted. It won't affect the system but
it will leave those files (and their space) there for eternity unless you
go and search for them.
Might not apply to current releases though...

Jerry,

If you are applying just the PTFs listed for the upgrade, you can
do an *IMMDLY on the Apply PTF command, if you are doing a cumulative or
Hiper with it, then I would let everything load with an IPL. In either
case, you will need to IPL.

Sometime, before the upgrade, I always like to Perm apply all my
PTFs, which would require another IPL.

As for the extra disks, you can add them to the Image Catalogue
and then select those LPPs which you have a license for or are products
that don't require a license.

Glad my presentation was helpful to you, you made my day :)

Pete
