  • V5R4 > V6R1 Questions

    Hi guys,

    I'm looking at a V5R4 to V6R1 upgrade pretty soon.. I have questions about the Cumulatives..

    Our system is a little behind on patches - C8305540 - is the last one installed, November 1, 2008..

    The latest available looks like - C0292540 - 01 Nov 2010.


    Do I have to apply the latest V5R4 Cumulative before upgrading to V6R1?

    Also,

    Would you recommend I patch V6.1 to the latest, C0215610 - 16 Aug 2010 as a part of the upgrade, or leave it until later?
    (Hmm, that's supposing the 6.1 order I just placed doesn't include C0215610.. idk)

    Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

    It's necessary to take up the last PTFs before all upgrade.
    And install frequently the last PTFs (Cum and Group).

      The current level of your V5R4 machine is probably fine. Unless the current upgrade process recommends a certain ptf, you probably wont have to do anything there.

      I would load the latest fix package after the V6R1 install.
