Re: Power6 520 system upgrade (Janice Chester)

Hello Janice,

You need to review the IBM Info APAR for BPCS, and the BMRs you have applied lately and find out if any BMRs are needed. Updates to the client/server runtime may be required depending upon whether or not you applied other previous BMRs to that runtime that already contained the required fixes. If you need to order those BMRs now, the latest client runtime BMRs will also bring in some new user licensing software changes in co-dependent BMRs, and these changes would also require a new key (assuming you did not already apply that new licensing update which became available last July). You need to read the entire document for any parts which indicate they are for your release of BPCS.
