Re: Upgrading V5R2 to V5R3

You have much reading to do!  Start with the 'Read this First' and 'Memo to
Users' documents for V5R3.  Read them carefully and they will provide all
the details you're looking for.  You need to make the determination if all
the specific gotchas for various changes and features will pertain to your
specific applications and environment.  It's not difficult, but there are
many specific tasks and things you need to check in to before hand.

If you're not intimately familiar with those 2 documents (they are crucial
to performing any OS/400 upgrade IMO), then that might explain some of your
v4r5 to v5r2 problems. ;)

Hi All,



As you may have seen in a previous message, our iSeries is currently
sitting at v5r2.  How difficult is it to upgrade to v5r3.  Is there
anything specific that needs to be done (next to an Option 21) to
perform an upgrade?  I'd be concerned about killing our production
machine (we had problems last time we went from v4r5 to v5r2), but I'm
wondering if that was because it was a major upgrade instead of a
minor(?) upgrade.



Thanks,



Brian.
