RE: AS-400 Upgrade

["Gary Ackland" <ackland@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Marc, its possible.  There are some dynamic enhancements in the 8xx models.
Sometimes a company will stay within their model types and just replace
their CPU 720-2062 to 2063 (CPW 420 to 810), but if the 720-2063 increases
the IBM level of software tier, say from a P20 to a P30, than a company may
want to upgrade from a 720-2062 to 820-2435 (CPW 420 to 600).

HiHo

I find it hard to believe that you are changing physical boxes and that your
serial number is the same????.

>From a command line type this command

        DSPSYSVAL SYSVAL(QSRLNBR)

They have to be different.
