Re: 820 to 520 Upgrade

The Backup and Recovery Guide, V5R3, Chapter 14 Release to Release Support
provides
a checklist under the section Previous Release-to-Current Release Support.
It starts
with the scratch install.  However, if you can order the 520 using the FC
0205 the 520 will be
only have LIC and base OS/400 installed and you could start the checklist
at step 27.

We use this checklist all the time for our RISC to RISC migration and it
works well.

If your are ordering one of the 520 Express configurations, then ordering
FC 0205 is
not an option.  They are automatically ordered with FC 5000 so they come
with
all OS/400 features and LPPs installed.  You have to perform the scratch
install
to get back to just LIC and base OS/400 which is where the checklist
begins.
