The key issue is that the creation template is kept in the program object - if a program or service program is created anywhere from V5R1 and up, that will be the case. If such an object were created before that, it might have the template and it might not - if you stripped observability before V5R1, the template disappeared - it is always kept around from V5R1 and up.

So whatever you do, run the ANZOBJCVN command over your libraries - you will get reports of any problems. Also do this over vendor libraries - I know that the main products we sell will do fine. Not all vendors, even today, have come up to speed, I believe.

Is it really true that a 'Program Conversion' is NOT necessary if you
are upgrading to Power6 hardware before going to V6R1?
In other words, if I purchased a NEW Power6 system with IBM i on it and
then restore programs from my Power5 V5R4 system, the restored programs
will NOT have to be converted? P
