Good News Everybody!
A new search engine is coming soon.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
Hi to the Gurus,
We have an HMC on V7.3.5.0, we would like to upgrade it to the current level, V8.8.5.
According to this document:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.nsf/ibmscdirect/23C4789BA6F5321886256FD300586B7F
the upgrade path would be:
V7.3.5.0->V7.7.8->V8.8.1->V8.8.3->V8.8.5
Is it correct?
My other question is: is it possible to do the upgrade remotely? (By using files downloaded to a local FTP server, not by using DVD sor iso images on a flash dirve) In this document (upgrade to V7.7.8)
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/0/ece7c6d1526edf2986257c34004fbb25?OpenDocument&TableRow=5.2#5.
I saw that it is possible to use getupgfiles command from the HMC to download files from a local FTP server, not IBM's. On later releases it is not mentioned, but I guess it is possible. Is it really?
