Evan,
Thanks for the response.
Yes, we are moving onto a new box as well.
Too bad about the job queue entries. We were hoping there was a work around.
How does it work for job scheduler entries: WRKJOBSCDE?
Do we lose them, too?
The upgrade is tomorrow morning - Saturday.
Thanks again,

Hi Fran
If you're just doing an upgrade on the one box you shouldn't need to do
anything other than run the automatic upgrade process.
If you are moving onto a new box via an unload/reload then you will lose
spool files and job queue entries. You can send the spool files across
afterwards if you want (presuming the box is still intact) using remote
outqeueues to transfer them. You can even upgrade the old box afterwards and
then save and restore the old spool files if you want to see how this
feature works. As to Job queue entries, in this situation I think your out
of luck.
You'll probably get a better answer if you describe the scenario in more
detail.
Regards
Evan Harris

Subject: V5R2 to V5R4 Upgrade and queues
Is it possible to save/restore job queues and output queues when upgrading
from V5R2 to V5R4...I hear them talking about 'skip', so maybe we are
skipping V5R3.
Just checked the archive - didn't see it.
The memo to users for both V5R3 and V5R4 didn't talk about it either.
Thanks,
