I have a V4R2 system that I want to upgrade to V4R3, then V4R4, and finally jump to V5R1. V5R2 will come a little later. I run V4R3 CDs through the 'Prepare for install' option off the LICPGM menu and end up with CPF3DC6 -- "Upgrade from release V4R2M0 to release V4R3M0 is not valid." My first guess is that my V4R2 system needs a preparatory PTF or other PTF that fixes the V4R2 upgrade/install process, but I don't have any useful documentation. And going through V4R2 PTFs one by one, since they don't seem to be indexed, wasn't pleasant. I can do a scratch install of V5R1 or V5R2, but I want to do a few intermediate tests. Of course, getting useful info from IBM about V4R2 to V4R3 isn't easy nowadays. So, does anybody have any old V4R2 upgrade instructions or relevant PTF documentation that might outline requirements? IBM should donate old info to hobbyist or developer sites, at least approve the archival storage of otherwise obsolete documentation or make links reasonably easy to find. Until then, lists are the best hope. Thanks much.
