I've been pondering an upgrade from v5r4 myself.
Does it make sense to go to 6.1 at this point, or should I go straight
to 7.1?
In my case, I'm not changing hardware at all, just updating the OS. I
know I'll have to run ANZOBJCVN and all that good stuff -- no question
about that.
What I want to know is whether skipping to 7.1 is a good idea right now,
or should I be more conservative and go to 6.1?

I have a customer that I have scheduled for some maintenance. They are
moving from 35GB to 70GB drives and I'd like to move them to a more
current OS release. The question is: Should I skip 6.1 at this point
and just take them to 7.1? They are currently running V5R4M0. They
have a model 520, processor feature 7355. They have a 573D-001 storage
controller.
The plan is to do a Save 21 (twice). Remove and label the 35GB drives
(so they can be re-installed in the correct order if disaster strikes),
restore the Save 21 and then upgrade them to either 6.1 or 7.1.
What else do I need to add to the mix?
Thanks,
Pete
