First thing: Check the DSPLOGBRM *BKU to ensure there were no problems.

Look at it to ensure that you have all you need to do a full system save.
I've started just enough of the system to physically print it off. If you
know what you are doing you can override the spool file and use
transformation services to create a pdf and download that instead.

I've done several upgrades this way, following the BRMS recovery report.
Sure, there are those, even those who are familiar with BRMS, who still
prefer to do a regular GO SAVE 21 for upgrades.
My thought is that if I cannot do an upgrade this way then my backups are
worthless. It's one heck of an effective test.

Now, if you're doing a migration from 7.1 on a P5 to 7.3 on a P9 that
get's a little more interesting.
