RE: V4R3 upgrade (HH)

Hank,

An additional thought in addition to my recent post.  Because these are
new machines for you, you may do better getting on IBM support, scratch
the machines, and do a full load from V5R2.  This would avoid the problem
of a two-step upgrade and might well result in a cleaner machine.
