Re: Upgrading WAS 5.1.2 to 6.0 on iSeries

Dear all,

I recently encountered response problem using LPEX editor in WDSc
V5.1.2.6.

Editing a line and press enter takes me about 5-6 seconds and I realised
the CPU was drained(PC task manager shows that) during that.

IBM feedback there could be LPEX parsing bug causing that; I tried
disable the LPEX parse; yes it did help, everything back to normal. 

The IBM feedback; asking me to try out WDSc 6.0 cause the parsing
problem has been resolved.

Now my questions here; we are on i550 V5R3 WAS 5.1 Express.

1. Does upgrading my WDSc from V5.1.2.6 to V6.0 required me to upgrade
my i550?

2. Can I upgrade my WDSc without touching my WAS on iSeries?

3. Where can I find the list of PTFs required should I am running WAS
5.1 
Express and WDSc 6.0?



 
Thanks & regards,

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Upgrading WAS 5.1.2 to 6.0 on iSeries

Hello,

 

On our iSeries 520 V5R3M0 CUMs as of 2005-11 we are running Websphere
Application Server Express 5.12.  I have sitting here the 6.0 Websphere
Application Server Express.  I would like to upgrade the iSeries and my
XP
client software to version 6.0.  Currently on our iSeries we have no
applications to migrate because so far I have just been using the Client
software to do some RPG and DDS coding.  

 

In the 6.0 package and there was no printed material on where to start
reading and I didn't really get a chance yet to dig into the CDs yet.
My
question that I have is should I uninstall WAS on the iSeries and XP
machine
or will the 6.0 upgrade everything cleaning if left in place?  Like I
stated
before I have no WAS apps to migrate at this point.
