Hi Sean,

Since Zend Core and Zend Server run in PASE (rather than the native environment) they can operate more or less independently of the OS version. It's possible to update IBM i and leave Zend Core running, as-is, on the updated box.

However, if you do decide to upgrade Zend Core to Zend Server, in my experience it does break some stuff, but they are mostly minor things. You'll want to go back and re-test your programs on the new server, and fix anything that broke. (You can run both Zend Core and Zend Server on the same box at the same time if you like.)

Good luck!

Is there an upgrade guide for going from V5R4M5 with Zend Core to
V7R1 which I believe should be Zend Server?

I'm not so much concerned with the configuration bits, as I'm pretty
sure I can figure that out (though if it's documented somewhere, I'll
certainly accept the easy way out.)

I'm thinking more along the lines of should I uninstall the previous
version before upgrading the OS? Will MySQL go easily along with
it?
