Crispin,

You're correct...I misread the original post.

Thought she wanted to keep the primary at v5r2 and upgrade the secondary to v5r4.

Sorry about the misinformation Sherri.

Charles,

Isn't that exactly the situation Sherri has. V5R2 on Secondary partition,
which is 2 releases behind the Primary of V5R4M5. That breaks the P-1
rule...

Sherri,

Not sure where you heard that, but it is incorrect.

IBM supports 2 levels back.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzait/rzaitrel
easesupport.htm

If the primary partition is running V5R1 or later, you can install and
run
the following releases on
the secondary partitions, provided that each release is supported by the
server model:

* The release before the release on the primary partition (P - 1)
* The release on the primary partition (P)
* The release after the release on the primary partition (P + 1)
* The second release after the release on the primary partition (P +
2)

HTH,

Hi, I was reading through documentation from IBM & it has been stated
that
I can only be one release behind the main partition with the secondary
partition. Can I upgrade from V5R2 to V5R4M5 on main partition when
the
secondary partition will be staying at V5R2 as it cannot be upgraded
for
at least another month? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,Sherri
