Cancel it and restart it, no problem.
I have a program that I wrote (in the V6R1 article) and it is on my website,
which cuts the conversion time down by about 60% of what the IBM ANZOBJCVN
command will say, by multi-threading. Use it all the time, and it makes a
huge difference.

Subject: STROBJCVN - Need to interrupt a V6R1M0 conversion
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.
