RE: Complete Box Swap 620 @ V4R5 to 810 LPAR @ V5R2 - what to watch for, etc.

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

System directory, smtp e-mail addresses, distribution lists, SNADS, Menus,
user & group profiles, Auth Lists.

Is the 620 at the same OS level?  If so, you can sav/rst security data which
will give you your user profiles, Group profiles, and auth lists.

If you don't use snddst, sndnetmsg, sndnetsplf, sndnetf, or sndrcvf then you
probably do not use SNADS and will not need distribution lists or system
directory entries.  Do you send e-mail from the AS400?   If so, do you have
smtp e-mail addresses setup for all your users?

Custom menu's are usually what gets overlooked.

Have our 810 in that will totally replace out 620 (i.e. new serial number,
taking NO hardware from the 620 to the 810, etc.). We decided to let IBM
Global Services setup the LPAR stuff. Our main software package is in one
library so that is easy. I will of course have the user profiles,
communications line (Ethernet), control units (Perle 494 TCP/IP), display
devices, printers, outqs, etc. to setup. Is there anything obvious that I
could be missing ? I've never done a complete box swap - been through a TON
of system upgrades. They both have their pluses and minuses. Nice thing with
this is we will have a system COMPLETELY setup while the production system
rolls along :-)
