Re: STROBJCVN - Need to interrupt a V6R1M0 conversion

Thanks Vern,
That's what I would have expected.

I was just getting a wee concerned that after +/- 20 hours my STROBJCVN
console wasn't getting any feedback from the STROBJCVN.

Well my patient(well sometimes) wife insisted we take the dogs out for an
hours work and, hey presto, on returning to my screen I'm now getting
messages showing that objects in libraries are being converted.

Might just have to wait.

As far as I know, once converted, they don't need to be converted again.
Unless you were to restore everything again!!

Hope that's right!

In my wisdom, I started the V6R1M0 STROBJCVN (*CONVERT) from my HMC
Remote 5250 Console. Thoughts of having the system standalone while the
conversion runs!

This was run just after I had done the upgrade from V5R4M0 using
PWRDWNSYS using an image catalog. Off course that all completed okay.
But I suspect, didn't check, that the system is still in restricted

mode?

The pre upgrade ANZOBJCVN had been run and said the conversion would run
for +/- 27 hours. The conversion started at 16:28 Sat 17/04/2010 and
it's now 12:00 Sun 18/04/2010.

Further reading on the list and redbooks shows that one need not run in
a 'stand alone' environment.

If I interrupt my HMC session and that ends the running STROBJCVN what
are the implications?

1. Can I restart the conversion or would all that has been done be
backed out/rolled back?
2. I would IPL first so that the system is restarted in 'normal'

mode.

Any ideas or recommendations would be appreciated.
