We purchased a new power 6 system as an upgrade and are able to run both the old and new systems side by side. Our BP installed V5R4M5 on the new system and then we did a full save (option 21) on the current system and a full restore to the new. They the BP installed the most recent PFTs. Total time to backup was about 4 hours, total time to restore was about 4 hours. Adding in the PFTs added another 6. 14 hours total downtime to make the switch. We are going to check out the new system to be sure everything is there and running and looks good and then schedule a weekend to make the final cutover. Since the only thing that is going to change is our data could we safely do a save (option 21) and then just restore userprofiles and our libraries? BP would like to blow away everything and start from installing V5R4M5 again, then a full restore and all the PFTs again. Looking to save that extra 6 hours of downtime.
