Re: Move from V2.3 (yes!) to V5R1 or V5R2

I thought about that intermediate step to V3R2.
I got a third system (model 200) at my site to move the stuff to at first.
At first sight I thought just to take the sources and compile it all
new on V5 and the move in the data.
The rest of system config is easily done by hand as the old system
has only had twinax and was networked at all.
That shouldn't be that complex.

Thanks for your help, Philipp
