Ran into a few issues after upgrading one lpar to V6R1.
Apparently you cannot use the SENDEPSV ftp subcommand in your ftp client
prior to V6R1. So burying that in your ftp scripts to prepare for V6R1 is
not an option.
You either have to:
- Change all your ftp scripts to contain that (for those servers that
don't support it (like a bank that we're dealing with) after the upgrade
to V6R1 but prior to use thereof.
- Change your ftp programs that process the output from OVRDBF(OUTPUT) to
ignore the "500 Subcommand EPSV not valid." message.
- Upgrade all your trading partners to support this (big freaking HAH!).

Gee, I wonder what the Change Management and High Availability vendors
will do if they try to ftp from a V6R1 machine to a pre V6R1 machine?
Perhaps they ignore the "500 Subcommand EPSV not valid." message and
solely concentrate on the "226 File transfer completed successfully."
message?

FTPing from a V6R1 i lpar to a V5R4 i lpar, with all the latest ptf's
