RE: Joe's V5R1 upgrade (was totally unrelated topic)

The first time you do an upgrade is different from then on.  The first 
time always do the cume first and IPL.

The database and hiper groups on not on the same Cd's as the cume.  They 
will, however, come in the same overnight package.  There should be an 
additional Cd in there with both groups on it.  You'll have to look 
carefully at the labels on the CD's and in the cume instructions itself to 
figure it out.

Not on the first cume after an upgrade, but on cumes after that I would 
put on all group ptf's, then the cume, and only IPL after the cume.

So now I have all my disks.  Now, I had always thought you were supposed 
to
install the cume, and then the group PTFs (because the groups tended to 
come
more often than the cume).

However, IBM threw me a curve by saying that from C2134510 on, cumes would
include the Database and HIPER group PTFs.  Not only that, according to 
the
documentation, you should apply any included groups BEFORE you apply the
cume.  The best I can read from this is that I'm supposed to install the
Database and HIPER groups prior to the cume, then the cume, then the other
groups.  NOt only that, I should IPL after the cume install.

1. Database/HIPER
2. Cume
3. (IPL)
4. Other groups (Java, HTTP, etc.)
5. (IPL)

What do you all think?

Joe
