AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

Chapter 1. Overview of RISC-to-RISC Upgrades and Data
Migrations
The road map lists important considerations and activities that are critical to the
successful model upgrade of a system. Although this road map is not designed to
be an all inclusive how-to source for activities relating to upgrading your system, it
covers the essentials by guiding you to the proper source. Follow all the steps in
the order presented and notify your IBM® representative for assistance if you run
into difficulties.
|
|
|
|
|

This information does not specifically cover hardware feature upgrades for the
following features:
v Feature conversion 5065 to 5074
v Feature conversion 5066 to 5079
v Feature conversion 5075 to 5074

|
|
|

If you are performing one of these hardware feature upgrades in a partitioned
environment, see the Logical Partitioning web site at the following address:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/lpar/

This road map also covers how to perform a model to model data migration. A
data migration can be performed from almost any model AS/400® to any model
AS/400. The source model must be at the same release as the new model AS/400
to correctly complete the data migration.

What Is In this Road Map
This road map covers the following upgrades:
Notes:
1. The source system might need a hardware upgrade before the customer starts
Program Temporary Fixes (PTFs) and prior to installing V4R4 or V4R5
software. This is to get the source system compatible with the target system.
7xx models require V4R3 or later and 8xx models require V4R5.
2. SSP is not supported in V4R5.
v Model 170 to Model 170
There are no upgrades into or out of a model 170. The
this book covers the procedure used to perform a data
system to the new model AS/400.
v Model 270 to Model 270
There are no upgrades into or out of a model 270. The
this book covers the procedure used to perform a data
system to the new model AS/400.

There are no model upgrades into a model 8xx from a model 5xx, SB1, SB2, or
SB3. However, some hardware may be moved from the 5xx into a migration I

expansion unit (I/O and disk unit). The Data Migration section of this book
covers the procedure used to perform a data move from the source system to the
new model AS/400.
v Models 6xx to Models 8xx
v Models 7xx to Models 8xx

Appendix C, “Possible AS/400 RISC-to-RISC Upgrades” on page 45 has detailed
tables that indicate which upgrades are permitted.
For servers not having an upgrade path, use the data migration section of this
book. This would include scenarios such as, an AS/400 model 540 to an AS/400
model 270.

Why Upgrade from One AS/400 System to Another?
You might ask yourself why IBM is doing this and why upgrade your system
now? Most customers need to increase performance and add capacity.

What is An Upgrade?
In this book, an upgrade is any improvement made to the software or the
hardware of an AS/400 model that retains the serial number of the AS/400 model.
This includes moving the compatible hardware, the Licensed Internal Code,
operating system, and the licensed programs to a new target system for better
performance and reliability.
A data migration is the process of moving only the data from one model AS/400
to a new model AS/400.

Hardware Investment for Upgrading
You may choose to upgrade your existing AS/400 RISC system processor, or
replace it with a new, AS/400 model. In either case, you may keep most of the
current system. The process of either an upgrade of your existing system or
moving parts from an existing system to a new system, are called miscellaneous
equipment specification (MES). A MES is the process steps of an upgrade. The
type of MES depends on several factors:
v Your current processor model
v Costs
v Your system availability requirements
The information in this book will help to determine the right path to an upgrade.
This is based on the current model and the goals of the process.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

How Long Will the Upgrade Take?
The upgrade process includes planning, ordering, shipping, installing and testing
the system. The following table shows approximately how long an upgrade might
take.
Note: You should plan at least one additional hour of down time to load the
operating system for systems not preloaded.
Order Planning - 5 to 15
Days

Installation Planning and Preparation - 10 to 30 days Phase II Installation - Weekend
(1 to 3 days)
Phase I Installation - 5 to

What is A Data Migration?
A data migration is the process of moving the OS/400® and the data from one
model AS/400 to a new model AS/400.
The source system must be at the same release level as the target server. This
includes OS/400, all objects, and all licensed programs.
For customers ordering a new RISC AS/400 server with V4R4 or V4R5 to replace
an existing RISC AS/400 model (″source″) and needing to migrate their data from
the ″source″ model to the new server, a new feature code Feature Code (F/C)
#0205, is now available. This new feature code should be ordered against the new
RISC AS/400 server. It is valid on orders for all new servers except the Models 150
and SB1.
For Feature Code #0205, the customer must have purchased a new server with
enough hardware and disk unit to hold all of the data from the ″source″ model as
well as any new data including any required IBM software (OS/400 and so forth).
Additionally, the RISC-to-RISC Data Migration process requires that the ″source″
model must be at the same version/release of OS/400 and Licensed Program
Products (LPPs) as that of the ″new″ server which has been ordered/received.
Customers with Version 3 (V3R7) on their ″source″ model must upgrade to Version
4. It is recommended that they purchase Software Subscription for AS/400. They
must then order and upgrade to match the new server (V4R4 or V4R5) in order to
proceed with their data migration. V3R7 cannot be directly upgraded to V4R4 or
V4R5 therefore, to do this the source system will need to be upgraded to V4R2 or
V4R3 before upgrading to V4R4 or V4R5. Customers with Version 4 must obtain
new server release of OS/400 licenses of the LPPs, either through new orders or
via Software Subscription for AS/400.
Chapter 1. Overview of RISC-to-RISC Upgrades and Data Migrations

A License Addendum will be provided to allow the customer to install and use the
copy of OS/400 (received with the newly ordered server) on their source model for
up to 70 days. This Addendum authorizes the customers to use the new Version
and Release on the source system for the sole purpose of migrating their data. The
previous Version and Release must be reinstalled after the migration is completed.
The V4R4 or V4R5 licenses of OS/400 and the LPPs will only allow the products to
be run on one system at a time. Model 150 customers who are not at the new
server release of OS/400 must purchase the BasePak Upgrade (5649-EP5 for V4R4)
in addition to any upgrades for installed Optional Products in order to proceed
with their data migration. Feature Code #0205 provides for minimal pre loading of
the new server, inclusion of a special License Addendum, and an insert which
points to the AS/400 Technical Studio Web site (which provides the RISC-to-RISC
Road Map):
http://www.as400.ibm.com/tstudio/tech_ref/rrmap/

This Road Map provides the steps on how to do the RISC-to-RISC data migration.
For subsequent releases of OS/400, the Road Map will be included with the
shipment of the new server. Feature Code #0205 differs from Feature Code #0203.
Feature Code #0203 SHOULD NOT be ordered for AS/400 RISC-to-RISC data
migrations as it is designed exclusively for AS/400 CISC-to-RISC data migrations.

How Long Will the Data Migration Take?
The data migration process includes planning, ordering, shipping, installing and
testing the system. The following table shows approximately how long a data
migration might take.
Note: You should plan at least one additional hour of down time to upgrade the
operating system for source systems not at the new server release level.
Order Planning - 5 to 15 Days

Installation Planning and
Preparation - 10 to 30 days

Phase II Installation - Weekend (1 to 3
days)

Book To Use For Upgrade and Software Installation
If you have one of these releases installed on your system, your system
already runs on the RISC architecture. Use this book (AS/400e 940x
RISC-to-RISC Road Map, SA41-5155-04) for the upgrade. Use the book
Software Installation, SC41-5120-04, to replace the installed operating system
and licensed programs. Use the book Backup and Recovery, SC41-5304-04, for
the save and restore requirements of these procedures.
Note: * You cannot upgrade directly from V3R7 to V4R4 or V4R5. You must
first upgrade V3R7 to V4R2 or V4R3.
Note: * You cannot upgrade directly from V4R1 to V4R5. You must first
upgrade V4R1 to V4R3 or V4R4.
Note: V4R4 introduced logical partitions. Go to the Information Center for
help with setting up, upgrades to and maintaining logical partitions.
See the Software Installation book for other software requirements and
limitations prior to the OS/400 upgrade.

Review this chapter as you identify a solution and again after a decision is made
to verify the accuracy and completeness of the order.

Determining Your Upgrade Needs
To help determine the upgrade needs, please consider the following:
v What problems does this upgrade need to address?
v What additional applications or growth do you expect or plan for in the future?
v What new technology do you want as part of the upgrade?
v What are the requirements are for the following:
– Capacity
– Capability
– Performance
– Availability
v What are your expectations for the following:
– Impact on business operations
– Cost
– Performance
v What are the financial considerations to keep in mind? For example:
– Government discounts
– Capital planning cycles
– Tax implications
– Budget

Performance Tools for Capacity Planning and Performance
Analysis
|
|
|
|

The Performance Capabilities Reference provides information on iSeries
performance, capacity planning, and tips to obtain best performance. You can view
or print the PDF version of this reference at the following Web site:
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/perfmgmt/resource.htm

The licensed program Performance Tools/400 (Program 57xx-PT1) and QSIZE400
on the AS/400 configurator can be used for capacity planning and performance
analysis.
The BEST**/1 Capacity Planning function of the Performance Tools licensed
program provides the capability to analyze how a different AS/400 configuration
will perform with your current work load. The program temporary fixes (PTFs) are
now available that include capacity planning information for the PowerPC
processor models of the system. You can use Performance Tools to help you
determine the proper configuration of the processor main storage, and disk
resources that will meet your performance requirements.

Performance Tools are the best source of information for determining what
configuration meets your performance requirements. You should order the PTF
that updates your version of Performance Tools with the PowerPC AS processor
models.
Note: If you do not have Performance Tools on your system, you should obtain
modeling information in another way, such as by using consulting services.
Modeling the characteristics of your target configuration helps ensure that
the configuration meets your needs.
The latest PTFs for AS/400 BEST/1 Capacity Planner are required. You can order
or download these PTFs from the following Web site:
http://as400service.ibm.com

You need to register at this site. Do the following to go to the AS/400 Internet PTF
Facility:
1. Click Fixes, Downloads and Updates
2. Click Internet PTF Downloads (iPTF)

How to Gather Configuration Information
You and your marketing representative use the Enhanced Upgrade Order Process
(EUOP) and the AS/400 configuration program (CPAS400 and e.Config). This
process compares your current configuration with your desired configuration and
creates the MES order automatically. This simplifies the work that you and the
marketing representative have to do and ensures a correct MES order. See
Appendix B, “Enhanced Upgrade Order Process (EUOP)” on page 43 for more
information on how to use the Enhanced Upgrade Order Process.

How to Gather Performance Information
Gathering performance data before installing a release gives you a base with which
to compare your system’s performance after the installation is complete.
Performance data is also useful when determining the correct hardware
configuration for your upgrade.
You can gather the information by using the Start Performance Monitor
(STRPFRMON) command or the Work with Performance Collection
(WRKPFRCOL) command.
If you use the STRPFRMON command or WRKPFRCOL command, you should
collect two sets of data. The first set of performance data should be an overview
for a 24-hour period. Collect two 24-hour periods on days when the system load is
normal to heavy.
See the Software Installation book for more information on performance
monitoring.
Note: If you plan to install the Version 4 licensed program 5769-PM1, you must
convert the data collected on your current pre-Version 4 system before you
can analyze it with the 5769-PM1 licensed program.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

Prerequisites Before Placing an Order
This section will cover the prerequisites of placing an order to upgrade the system.
These include software-related items, hardware considerations, system
configuration considerations, and available services that everyone should know
before placing an order.

Version 4 Software Items
See the table on supported releases for software upgrades in the book Software
Installation, SC41-5120-04, to find what versions may be upgraded from and to. For
example, you must be at V4R1 to upgrade to V4R4 and at V4R2 to upgrade to
V4R5.
The ″Preparation Program Temporary Fixes Required Before Installing V4R5M0
Software″ section in the Software Installation book describes how to apply PTFs.

Other Software Related Items
v Determine whether there are any additional software charges that are associated
with the processor group change. Two passes must be run on the AS/400
configuration program to determine these changes.
v Determine whether there are any additional usage changes because of the
user-based pricing that is associated with the software products on the system.
v Verify with the software service representative, or the business partner, that any
third party software that you use was tested on the software release level
ordered.
v Contact the software service representative for any software considerations and
restrictions that might apply to the model upgrade.
Notes:
1. If you have tape management software, ensure that it uses support that is
available on your target system. Do the following:
a. Type DSPOBJD OBJ(QSYS/QUSTAPEX) OBJTYPE(*PGM)
b. If you receive the message Object QUSTAPEX in library QSYS type *PGM
not found, you do not have this potential problem with tape management
software.
c. If you see the Display Object Description display for the QUSTAPEX
program, press F12 (Cancel). Contact the vendor who supplies your tape
management software to determine how the vendor will provide equivalent
support for your target release.
You may need to order an OS/400 feature called MSE (Media and Storage
Extensions).
2. For other software related questions, see AS/400 Technical Studio and the book
Software Installation, SC41-5120-04.
Attention:
For V4R4, OS/400 option 24 (OS/400 Lotus® Notes™ Enhanced Integration) is no
longer supported. It is deleted when V4R4 is installed. A migration of the data
must occur prior to installing V4R4 to Lotus Domino™ for OS/400. For detailed
instructions refer to the following URL:
http://www.as400.ibm.com/techstudio

Chapter 2. Planning Your Order for Upgrading or Data Migration

Hardware Considerations
v Determine the prerequisite engineering changes and program temporary fixes
(PTFs) that are needed to upgrade the system.
v Determine the attached input-output devices, and the operating system.
v Verify with the original equipment manufacturer vendor that any non-IBM
devices are compatible with the model upgrade and the new software release.
Note: The customer should request written confirmation of this compatibility
from the original equipment manufacturer vendor.
v The target system may have different power requirements than the source
system. Appropriate planning and preparation by the customer is very
important. Determine whether you need additional space and power
requirements for any additional system units or system racks. For more
information, see the AS/400 Technical Studio.
v Verify that the target system has a tape drive compatible with the tape format
used to save information on the source system.
v Ensure that your marketing representative or IBM business partner is aware of
the number of ports on your current twin-ax workstation controllers and the
number of ports you will need on your new model. This will help to ensure that
the proper model and features get ordered for your upgrade.

Installing from an Alternate Installation Device
Version 4 releases include support for alternate installation devices on buses other
than bus 1 (the system bus). If you use an alternate installation device, you need to
ensure that the device is set up and enabled. You also need to have the CD-ROM
for Licensed Internal Code as well as your tape media. The Appendix of the
Software Installation book describes the alternate installation device function and
identifies situations in which older tape devices may require its use. The appendix
also describes how to set up, enable, or disable an alternate installation device.
Note:
alternate IPL device
This may be a CD-ROM unit or tape unit, attached to the system
bus 1 (the system bus)
alternate installation device
Tape unit attached to a bus other than the system bus 1
Performing the IPL using the alternate installation method is really just a
special kind of IPL type D. Such an installation involves two pieces of
media: the alternate IPL load source (code), usually on a CD-ROM, and the
alternate installation media (currently must be a tape). The alternate IPL
load source is used to start the IPL type D. The alternate installation media
contains the Licensed Internal Code that will be installed on the system. The
alternate IPL load source will always be read through a device on bus 1 of
the system. The alternate installation media is placed in a device on any bus,
except bus 1.

System Configuration Considerations
v Change the auxiliary storage pool (ASP) configuration either before or after the
upgrade, but never during the upgrade.
v If you use mirroring, make sure to specify the correct level.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

v A current system configuration list should be available for the hardware service
representative. The configuration list provides details of your current system
configuration.
To print the System Configuration List, do the following:
1. On the AS/400 Main menu command line, type STRSST. Then, press the Enter
key.
2. On the STRSST display, select Start a service tool option. Press the Enter key.
3. On the Start a Service Tool display, select Hardware service manager. Press
the Enter key.
4. From the Hardware Service Manager display, press F6 (print configuration).
5. To return to the AS/400 Main menu, Press F3 (Exit) twice, and then press the
Enter key.
6. Keep the printed list - the service representative will need it.

Services and Other Assistance
v Determine whether you need on-site support or services. Appendix A, “AS/400
Global Services” on page 39, has information about the following:
– IBM Global Services
– AS/400 Data Migration Services
– V4R5 Planning and Migration Services
– LPAR Planning and Implementation Services
– Other AS/400 support family services
– AS/400 solution services
v Determine the responsibilities for all upgrade activities. These responsibilities
include:
– Outline the model upgrade activities and the person responsible for each
activity, as described in Table 4 on page 19.
– Develop an installation plan, a schedule of activities, and a checklist. See the
SA Advisor in the Expert menu Application on HONE.
Your IBM Representative may visit the Solutions Assurance Web site:
http://w3.ibm.com/support/assure

Your IBM representative can use marketing tools to get more information
about these changes:
On a Virtual Machine (VM) system type:
TOOLS SENDTO LEXVMIC1 TOOLS SAPRDOC GET SA95008 SCRIPT *
TOOLS SENDTO LEXVMIC1 TOOLS SAPRDOC GET SA95008 LIST3820 *

v Order any optional hardware and software publications by using PUBORDER or
the System Library Subscription Service (SLSS).
v Determine whether you have any education needs.

Model-specific Considerations for Placing an Order
There are unique model-specific considerations when upgrading from one RISC
model to another RISC model. Before placing an order, everyone involved in the
upgrade process should review these upgrade considerations:
Note: IBM refreshed some of the AS/400 input and output adapter lines in V4R1.
The Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) is now an industry standard.
Chapter 2. Planning Your Order for Upgrading or Data Migration

Version 3 software users may have some System Product Division (SPD)
hardware that is not supported by these PCI changes. Your IBM
representative can use marketing tools to get more information about these
changes:
On a VM system type:
TOOLS SENDTO USDIST MKTTOOLS MKTTOOLS GET PCIALT PACKAGE

v The prerequisite for migrating SPD book-type adapter cards is a Model S20, S30,
S40, SB1, 620, 640, 650, 720, 730, or 740.
v There is concurrent disk unit maintenance.
v You must upgrade any 266 MB expansion unit to 1063 MB.
v You can use the alternate IPL device (see “Installing from an Alternate
Installation Device” on page 10) function for any installation or recovery that
requires replacing Licensed Internal Code or other licensed programs. Some
models might require an alternate installation device. You can use this device
for installing distribution tapes that were created by a central site, or for
recovery, using a SAVSYS tape.
Note: In Models S10, S20, 600, 620 and 720, the input-output processor (IOP) to
which certain older tape devices connect, require an expansion unit in
order to use the devices. The following tape devices are affected: 2440,
3422, 3430, 3480, 9347, 7208-002, and some models of 3490. Other 7208
models and 3490 models Exx, C11, and C22 are supported without an
expansion unit. Models 3490 C1A and C2A can be converted to Small
Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) format, which is supported without an
expansion unit. If you use older tape devices as alternate installation
devices, on Models S10, S20, 600,620 and 720, you need the expansion
unit. You need to set up the devices as alternate installation devices.
v Models Sxx and 6xx have a new internal-external SCSI input-output adapter.
v You cannot upgrade an AS/400 Advanced Series to an AS/400 Advanced Server.
You cannot update an AS/400 Advanced Server to an AS/400 Advanced Series.
v Be aware that upgrades to an AS/400 may require wiring changes to the
building. For more information, see the AS/400 Technical Studio.
The customer should work with the marketing representative to schedule a
system assurance meeting to review all of the following activities.
Note: This meeting should include the customer, IBM marketing representative,
hardware service representative, software service representative, and any
non-IBM software service representative.
v Review memory considerations as follows:
– Net-priced main storage feature exchanges are not available when upgrading
to another AS/400 PowerPC AS model. In addition, you cannot exchange
AS/400 memory cards for credit toward the purchase of newer or larger
AS/400 memory cards. To reduce the necessity for future memory exchanges,
the customer should order sufficient memory card sizes for future growth
requirements.
– Main storage for AS/400 400®, 500, and 530 is not compatible with each other.
– Main storage for AS/400 40S, 50S, and 53S, are not compatible with each
other.
– You must plug in main storage cards in equally-sized pairs for the Model 500
Feature Processor 2142. Therefore, it might not be possible to reuse all of the
main storage cards from the previous feature processor (2140 or 2141).

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

– You must plug in main storage cards in equally-sized pairs for the AS/400
510 and 530 and the AS/400 50S and 53S.
v Ensure that you know how to accomplish RAID protection on a migrated
internal disk unit. You must have an attachment to a Feature Code for a high
availability DASD controller (for example, 6502, 6512, 6532, 2726, or 2740).
Note: In order to avoid additional charges for the IBM service representative’s
time, perform ASP management after completion of the hardware
upgrade.
v Be prepared to delete the old device description and create a new one, if the
type of console changes.
v Review and confirm the hardware and software order.
v Some systems have a mix of unsupported disk unit devices. If the system has
such a mix, consider one of the following:
– Purchase additional supported disk unit devices in order to enable the
removal of all unsupported devices before the model upgrade.
– Purchase AS/400 Data Migration Services.

Upgrading from a 4xx, 5xx, Sxx, or 6xx to a 7xx
Many installed AS/400 models 4xx, 5xx, 6xx, and Sxx (except SB1) can be
upgraded.
All system units and expansion units have locations for features including
processors, main storage, power, expansion units, disk units, tape drives, CD-ROM
drive, and IOPs. Some restrictions may apply to certain combinations of features.
The configurator contains the rules and performance considerations for placement
of these features. It should be used to ensure a valid configuration. The use of
performance tools may also help in optimizing a configuration to match a specific
set of requirements.
Note: When ordering a model upgrade from a mixed-mode server (S20, S30, S40)
to AS/400e™ 7xx servers, an Interactive Specify code must be on the model
Sxx inventory record prior to ordering the model upgrade. The configurator
will generate a Record Purpose Only (RPO) order to add a zero priced
Interactive Specify code to the installed mixed-mode server prior to the
upgrade. This is a required step.
Sxx Interactive Specifies that the configurator will add:
v Model S20
– #1490 Interactive Specify
– #1492 Interactive Specify
v Model S30
– #1492 Interactive Specify
– #1493 Interactive Specify
– #1494 Interactive Specify
v Model S40
– #1495 Interactive Specify
– #1496 Interactive Specify

v 2408 based on the 2385 model 170 processor
v 2409 based on the 2388 model 170 processor
The Dedicated Server for Domino supports the following 270 processors:
v 2422 based on the 2250 model 270-2
v 2423 based on the 2252 model 270-3
v 2424 based on the 2253 model 270-4
The Dedicated Server for Domino supports the following 8xx processors:
v 2425 based on the 2396 model 820-2
v 2426 based on the 2397 model 820-3
v 2427 based on the 2402 model 830-2
v 2428 based on the 2403 model 830-3
MES upgrades to the Dedicated Server for Domino will not be allowed. Dedicated
Server for Domino models may optionally be preloaded with Domino for AS/400
software and license. Dedicated Server for Domino server is a prerequisite for a
Domino for AS/400 Quarterly Maintenance Update (QMU) version 5.01x.
Dedicated Server for Domino will give favored performance to workloads running
Domino and non-favored performance to workloads not running Domino.
Interactive jobs will also be restricted.
For more information refer to the topic ″Domino for AS/400 Server″ in the AS/400
Information Center.

Migrating from a 5xx to an 8xx
When migrating SPD expansion units from a model 5xx or from any unsupported
path to an 8xx server, the order must have a migration expansion unit included.
IBM does not provide a pre-planned or pre-programmed upgrade from a Model
5xx to a Model 8xx. The user who wants to move I/O to 8xx hardware will have
to analyze their current configuration and determine what will and will not move
and plan the sequence of actions to make it happen. Here are some general
considerations:
v SPD I/O expansion unit can not be directly attached to an 8xx. A migration
expansion unit with SPD capability is required. If you have a Model 830 or 840
and do not have a migration expansion unit yet, a migration expansion unit
(migration expansion unit II), FC #5077 (and perhaps an FC #5057 expansion
unit), should be ordered. IBM does not offer an option to order a migration
expansion unit (migration expansion unit I) which could attach to a 820.
v SPD IOPs can not be inserted into an 8xx except via SPD slots in a migration
expansion unit or in SPD I/O expansion unit attached via a migration expansion
unit.
v Not all I/O is supported by V4R5 on an 8xx. There were several older disk
units, tape drives, IOPs, and so forth, which were no longer supported as of
V4R1.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

v The I/O expansion unit, on a model 500 or 510 only has a 266 Mbps Optical bus
Adapter which is too slow for the migration expansion unit to support. Using
the S40388 RPQ, the expansion unit can be converted to a faster I/O expansion
unit with a 1063 Mbps Optical Bus Adapter.
v In V4R5, the only type of PC console that an 8xx system supports is Operations
Console.
v Planning assistance from IBM Global Services or from an IBM Business Partner
may be very helpful if this is an unfamiliar area to the customer.

Upgrading from a 6xx or 7xx to an 8xx
Many installed AS/400 models 6xx and 7xx, except SBx, can be upgraded to the
8xx servers. See “Upgrading to a New 7xx or 8xx Model” on page 46 for
information on supported upgrades to new AS/400 models.
8xx models require V4R5 versions of OS/400.
All system units and expansion units have locations for features including
processors, main storage, power, expansion units, disk units, tape drives, CD-ROM
drive, and IOPs. Some restrictions may apply to certain combinations of features.
The configurator contains the rules and performance considerations for placement
of these features. It should be used to ensure a valid configuration. The use of
performance tools may also help in optimizing a configuration to match a specific
set of requirements.

What to Do When the Hardware Arrives
When the hardware arrives, the customer should notify the hardware service
representative and schedule a time for the upgrade.
Notes:
1. For customer install systems follow the instructions that came with your server
to get set up. If you are replacing an existing system without an upgrade path
covered in Appendix C, “Possible AS/400 RISC-to-RISC Upgrades” on page 45,
use the data migration section of this book.
2. The customer must have at least 64MB of memory or, arrange to have
additional memory installed before the upgrade can proceed. See the Software
Installation book for more information on prerequisites prior to an upgrade.
Check the load source size as follows:
1. Use STRSST (or DST) to do the following:
a. Select ″Work with Disk Units″ option.
b. Select ″Display Disk Configuration″ option.
c. Select ″Display Disk Configuration Capacity″ option.
d. Locate the line displayed for Unit 1. This line shows the protected and
unprotected capacity of the loadsource disk unit. One of the displayed fields
is zero, and one has a size.
2. Write down the size of the loadsource disk unit here- ______________. This
information will be used later in the upgrade.

Preparing the Current System
Approximately two weeks before the hardware service representative arrives, the
customer should do the following:
__ 1. Acquire the preventive service planning information (see Appendix G,
“Obtain the Latest Preventive Service Planning Information” on page 63)
from electronic customer support (see Appendix F, “How to Verify and Set
Up Electronic Customer Support” on page 55) if available, or from the
software service representative.
__ 2. See Appendix E, “Considerations and Solutions” on page 51 for information
pertaining to logical partitions. There are some specific steps to perform for
upgrading a server with a primary and secondary partitions installed.
__ 3. For considerations when upgrading to 5769-RD1 OnDemand, see
Appendix E, “Considerations and Solutions” on page 51 for information for
OnDemand.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

__ 4. For considerations when upgrading an AS/400 with OptiConnect installed,
see Appendix E, “Considerations and Solutions” on page 51 for information
for OptiConnect.
__ 5. For considerations when upgrading an AS/400 with AS/400 Integrated
Netfinity® Server installed, see Appendix E, “Considerations and
Solutions” on page 51 for information for Integrated Netfinity Server.
__ 6. Review and perform all items that pertain to your upgrade situation from
the book Software Installation, SC41-5120-04.
Attention: Do not install the program temporary fix (PTF) that reserves
space for the Version 4 Licensed Internal Code until you ensure that you
have adequate disk space in the system ASP.
__ 7. Document currently installed machine and LPAR partitions.
Without LPAR

With LPAR

Skip this step.

All hardware must be assigned to a primary
or secondary system partition before
upgrading. Where possible, plan the
upgrade activity in the following stages:
a. Stage 1
Load correct level software and PTFs on
source system, and ensure this is
contained in customer’s save media.
Work with Source system to assign
hardware resources to a partition and
clear non-reporting hardware. Work with
Target system to load customer’s level of
saved Licensed Internal Code onto new
target loadsource. This prevents
down-leveling during the upgrade.
b. Stage 2
Perform the model upgrade and Load
source migration. Do not make any
hardware changes, such as adding SPD
I/O or disk unit expansion units, that
could change the ″bus address distance″
between existing SPD hardware. The
″bus distance″ is important in
maintaining the LPAR configuration.
Note that the SPD hardware bus
addresses are +4 after moving to the
target system (1 maps to 4, 2 maps to 5,
and so on). Clear non-reporting
hardware resources.
c. Stage 3
Add additional features and expansion
units after LPAR configuration has been
re-established.
Contact your next level of support if you have
questions.

__ 8. Display the current value of system value QALWOBJRST and record it here
_______________.
DSPSYSVAL SYSVAL(QALWOBJRST)

__ 9. Set the Allow Object Restore (QALWOBJRST) system value to *All before
you install a new release of OS/400, install new licensed programs, or
Chapter 3. Procedure for an Upgrade (RISC-to-RISC)

apply program temporary fixes (PTFs). This value specifies whether objects
with security-sensitive attributes can be restored.
Note: These activities might fail if the value of QALWOBJRST is not set to
*ALL.
You can use the following command:
CHGSYSVAL SYSVAL(QALWOBJRST) VALUE(*ALL)

To ensure system security, return the QALWOBJRST value to the previous
setting after completing the system activity.
__ 10. Before proceeding to the next step, ensure that you are in possession of a
current system backup. To do this, follow the procedure for saving the
entire system (using option 21) by referring to any of the following:

__ 3. Perform any contracted relocation or rearrangement services prior to
returning the system to the customer for their use.
__ 4. Perform normal clean-up and housekeeping tasks. This includes proper
reporting of time and activities, including any fee-based services delivered.
After the hardware is installed, the customer should do the following:
In the next few steps the customer will be required to use the information from the
service representative to finish the resource management on the new server. The
goal of these steps is to ensure the server is set up and running to the customer’s
needs.
__ 1. Ensure that you received the source system’s label locations print out from
the hardware service representative. (Refer to step 8 on page 26). This is
used to get the hardware resources correctly assigned to resource names.
__ 2. Continue the initial program load (IPL) by selecting option 1 from the IPL
or Install the System screen.
Notes:
a. You might see a disk unit format optimize warning message. IBM
suggests that you handle this disk optimization and protection later. See
step 17 on page 32.
b. If the Add All Disk Units to the System ASP screen appears, IBM
recommends that you wait and add the disk units at step 19 on page 32.
Note:
Changing the QIPLTYPE system value may result in receiving the system
reference code (SRC) A900 2000.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

SRC A900 2000
You might see the SRC A900 2000 on the control panel display of the
system unit. Or, you might receive message CPF0975 Console did not
vary on on the console display. This SRC and message appear if there
is no device description for the console display. They might also
appear if the QIPLTYPE system value is set to 2.
This SRC and message are normal during the upgrade procedure. The
SRC will disappear when you perform a normal IPL later in the
upgrade procedure.
If no workstation on your system is operational when you receive
SRC A900 2000, continue with the “SRC A900 2000 Recovery” on page
52 section in Appendix E, “Considerations and Solutions” on page 51.
Note: The Basic System Operation, Administration, and Problem Handling book
describes other displays that you might see during a manual IPL.
__ 3. Sign on to the system as the security officer using the QSECOFR user
profile.
__ 4. At the IPL Options screen verify the date and time. Verify that the following
items are set as follows. If any of these items are not correct, change them
now as shown in the example below.
Start print writers = N
Start to system to restricted state = Y
Define or change system at IPL = Y

__ 5. After the IPL competes, use the Work with Configuration Status
(WRKCFGSTS) *LIN *ALL command to ensure that all communications
lines are varied off.
__ 6. Vary off all devices, except the display station in use as the console. Use
the WRKCFGSTS *DEV command to display a list of devices. Note that the
console is assigned to the QCTL controller.
__ 7. Use the WRKCFGSTS *CTL *ALL command to ensure that all controllers
are varied off.
__ 8. The service representative should have given you a Label Location work
sheet to assist you with the upgrade process. On it, the service
representative should have indicated controllers (and devices) that are in
different locations than they were on your source system. You must
correct resource names to be able to access the devices on your system.
__ 9. Run the WRKHDWPRD command to determine whether devices are in
different locations than they were on the source system.
a. On the command line, type WRKHDWPRD and press the Enter key.
b. On the Work with hardware products display, select the Change description
label locations option. Press the Enter key.
c. Read the information on the Using Change Label Locations display and
press the Enter key.
d. Compare the label information on the display with the source system’s
label locations. The source system’s label locations should have been
written down before the hardware upgrade took place (see step 8 on
page 26). Label information matches if the Label column on the display
matches what the source system had. Label information does not match
if any one of the following is true:
Chapter 3. Procedure for an Upgrade (RISC-to-RISC)

v The display has label information, but the source system did not
have label information in that location.
v The source system label information does not match the information
found in the Label column on the display.
v *NONE appears in the Label column on the display, and there is label
information for the source system.
Note: When *NONE appears in the Label column for a controller or
device that was added or upgraded, select option 2. Then
select the correct label description from the list provided. If
any problems arise from this, call your service provider.
v *INCORRECT or *INVALID appears in the Label column.
This means that the type and model number of the hardware
resource information does not match the type and model of the
configuration description that is currently associated with that
resource. The system cannot vary on the configuration description.
v *INCORRECT — where the physical location is also ’**’.
This identifies a controller or device description that no longer has a
valid resource on the system.
e. Do you have any locations that do not match the label information on
the system?
Note: It is normal for the resource names to change during the upgrade
process. Do not use the resource name information from other
displays to match the labels.
YES - Go to step 9f.
NO - The system label information is the same as the (physical) label.
Go to step 10 on page 31.
f. On the Change Description Label Locations display, type 2 in the Opt
column for each location that requires a label change. Press the Enter
key.
Note: You may make more than one selection at a time, but if More...

Page forward to select the remaining labels.
g. The Change Description Label display appears.
A list of possible label names is shown. To select the label name (on the
display) that matches the label that was on the source system, perform
the following:
v Type 1 in the Opt column for each location that you want to change.
v Press the Enter key.
Note: If you cannot find the label (on the display) that matches the
label on the source system, contact your hardware service
representative.
h. If you chose to change more than one item, the Change Description Label
display appears for the next label. A message at the bottom of the
display indicates whether the previous change was successful.
i. For all the labels that need a change, repeat the previous three steps.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

j. After you change the last label, the Change Description Label Locations
display appears with the updated information. A message at the bottom
of the display indicates whether the last change was successful. If
More... appears on the bottom of the display, scroll forward to view
more information.
k. Press the F17 key on the Change Description Label display to request a
printout of the new information for your records.
Note: The printout will be in the default output queue for your
workstation. You can print it later when you vary on your printer
devices and start printer writers.
l. Verify that the labels on the printout match the labels in the Label
column on your source system. If you find any errors, go back to step 9f
on page 30 and repeat the steps.
Attention: Do not exchange cards for problem analysis purposes. Card
and device serial numbers are tied to the system configuration.
__ 10. The Change Description Label Locations display appears. Determine whether
the new target system has more storage or communications lines than the
source had. If so, use the Work Management book to check the work
management objects and tune the system performance.

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

Chapter 4. AS/400 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map - Data
Migration
Prerequisite for Data Migration (RISC-to-RISC)
The source system must be at the same release level as the target server. This
includes OS/400, all objects, and all licensed programs. For customers ordering a
new RISC AS/400 server to replace an existing RISC AS/400 model (″source″) and
needing to migrate their data from the ″source″ model to the new server, a new
feature code Feature Code (F/C) #0205, is now available. This new feature code
should be ordered against the new RISC AS/400 server. It is valid on orders for all
new servers except the Models 150 and SB1. For Feature Code #0205, the customer
must have purchased a new server with enough hardware and disk space to hold
all of the data from the ″source″ model as well as any new data including any
required IBM software (OS/400 and so forth). Additionally, the RISC-to-RISC Data
Migration process requires that the ″source″ model must be at the same version
and release of OS/400 and Licensed Program Products (LPPs) as that of the ″new″
server which has been ordered and received.
v Customers with Version 4 must obtain licenses for the LPPs, either through new
orders or via Software Subscription for AS/400. A License Addendum will be
provided to allow the customer to install and use the copy of the new OS/400
release with the newly ordered server-on their source model for up to 70 days.
This Addendum authorizes the customers to use the new Version and Release on
the source system for the sole purpose of migrating their data. The previous
Version and Release must be reinstalled after the migration is completed. The
licenses of OS/400 and the LPPs will only allow the products to be run on one
system at a time.
v Model 150 customers who are not at the target release must purchase the
BasePak Upgrade (5649-EP5) in addition to any upgrades for installed Optional
Products in order to proceed with their data migration.
Feature Code #0205 provides for minimal preloading of the new server, inclusion
of a special License Addendum, and an insert which points to the AS/400
Technical Studio Web site:
http://www.as400.ibm.com/tstudio/tech_ref/rrmap/
This Web site provides the RISC-to-RISC Road Map. The Road Map provides the
steps on how to do the RISC-to-RISC data migration. For subsequent releases of
OS/400, the Road Map will be included with the shipment of the new server.
Feature Code #0205 differs from #0203. Feature Code #0203 SHOULD NOT be
ordered for AS/400 RISC-to-RISC data migrations as it is designed exclusively for
AS/400 CISC-to-RISC data migrations.

Before the server arrives, the customer should do the
following:
1. Verify that the source system is at the same release level as the target server.
This includes OS/400, all objects, and all licensed programs.
2. Acquire the preventive service planning information (see Appendix G, “Obtain
the Latest Preventive Service Planning Information” on page 63) from electronic

customer support, if available.You can also acquire this information from the
software service representative. The PSPs contain updates to the documents
you will be using.

When the new server arrives, do the following:
1. Inventory and check your order, ensure that what you have received matches
the container shipping list.
2. If Operations Console was ordered, you must use the book Operations Console
Setup, SC41-5508-01, to set up your PC for Operations Console. It is
recommended that you place the EZ-Setup CD-ROM inside the Operations
Console Setup book until needed in step 12. This book should be included with
your order if Operations Console (Feature Code #0367) was ordered with the
system.

Before the data migration is to take place, do the following on
the source system:
1. If the source system is not already at the same release as the new server, use
the book Software Installation, SC41-5120-04, for upgrading the source system
to the release level of the new server.
Note: You must restore the source system to the old release level after the
data migration is completed, as per the license agreement.
2. Delete any unused device configuration descriptions on the source system.
This will save you steps later.
3. Print a new system configuration list using Start a service tool option.
4. Do the following on the AS/400 Main menu command line:
Start System Service Tools by typing:

Figure 2. Enhanced Order Upgrade Process-Overview

The EUOP uses two sources of information:
v The customer uses the Order menu on the AS/400e system to send a current
record of the hardware configuration to IBM. Electronic customer support is
used to send the configuration to the IBM RETAIN® system. (See “How to Use
the Enhanced Upgrade Order Process” on page 44.)
v The marketing representative uses the AS/400 configurator to define your
desired configuration. The latest configurators are PCAS400 and e.Config.
The AS/400 configurator compares the current configuration and the desired
configuration to a proposed order. When the customer approves the order, it is
transmitted from the configurator to the order system at IBM. The configurator

AS400e 940x RISC-to-RISC Road Map V4R5

Appendix D. Migrating Systems with the System Support
Program (SSP) Operating Systems
This appendix describes items to consider when you migrate a system that has an
Adv36 only operating system.
Attention:
8xx models and V4R5 do not support SSP.
The Adv36 documentation, refers to migrating data from an Adv36 (the source
system) to an AS/400 Model 236 or Model 436 (the target system). In the migration
that this appendix describes, the source system is an AS/400 Model 236 or Model
436 that has SSP as its only operating system. The target system is one of the
AS/400 7xx RISC models in Appendix C, “Possible AS/400 RISC-to-RISC
Upgrades” on page 45.
If tables in Appendix C, “Possible AS/400 RISC-to-RISC Upgrades” on page 45 do
not include your migration, refer to the following for additional information about
the migration that applies to you:
v The Advanced 36 Read This First document
v The Memorandum to IBM SSP Release 7.5 Users
v “Installation Tasks and Checklists” appendix in the AS/400 Advanced 36 Planning
and Reference Handbook, SA21-9656-01
As you read the Adv36 documentation, you might also notice that the books
sometimes refer to a specific release, for example, V3R7. Consider those references
applicable to all subsequent releases and modifications until otherwise indicated in
new releases.

Migrating from a Model 236
This migration requires target system initialization:
__ 1. Print a copy of the original configuration record from your source system.
Information in that record might be helpful when you install the release 7.5
programming support as part of installing an AS/400 Adv36 machine on
your target system.
For information about printing the original configuration record, see
Changing Your System Configuration-SSP, SC21-8295-03.
__ 2. Save the following information from your source system:
v The Licensed Internal Code
v The SSP
v The licensed program products (LPPs)
v All the user libraries, folders, and files
v Other Adv36 files that might exist, such as:
– The Password Security file
– The Resource Security file
– The Network Resource Directory
© Copyright IBM Corp. 1997, 2000

– The Extended Character files
– The Adv36 configuration files
When the upgrade completes, you will only need to restore the user
libraries, folders and files, plus the other SSP files on your target system. If
the upgrade is unsuccessful, to recover you will need to restore all the saved
data.
Note: The Transition Aid Feature provides an easy way to move the user
environment from your source to your target system. IBM
recommends that you use this feature for your libraries, folders, files,
and other SSP files.
For information about saving the data and the Transition Aid Feature, see
Operating Your Computer-SSP Operating System, SC21-8297-01.
__ 3. Contact your hardware service representative for the hardware portion of
the upgrade. Your hardware service representative will do the following:
a. Move the disk units from the source to target system.
b. Install the Licensed Internal Code.
When the hardware service representative installs the Licensed Internal
Code, the representative should select the Install Licensed Internal Code
and initialize the system option from the Install Licensed Internal Code
(LIC) display.
__ 4. Refer to the book Software Installation, SC41-5120-04, for instructions about
how to install the IBM Operating System/400® Version 3 (OS/400) operating
system.
Note: When you install the OS/400 operating system, remember to install
the licensed programs.
__ 5. For instructions about how to create the Adv36 machine, refer to steps 1
through 8 in “Path E: Installing an SSP on an AS/400 System” in the

IBM HTTP Server for AS/400
When migrating your AS/400 system from V3R7 to V4R2, some existing common
gateway interface, CGI programs may not function correctly. The CGI interface in
V4R2 was changed to improve performance.
What was the change?
The AS/400 runtime environment now allows the IBM HTTP Server for AS/400 to
put into effect byte streams for CGI standard in and standard out.
Why was the change made?
Customer requirements caused this change to remove the line length limitations
on, (standard in and standard out).
What problems were detected or flagged?
1. Programs that call QtmhRdStdin multiple times to read the standard in data
are incorrect, and this does not work.
2. All programs that read from (standard in), (QtmhRdSdtin) need to check the
Content-Length environment variable to determine the number of bytes to read.
Programs that do not use the Content-Length environment variable and read
more than the Content-Length will not work.
Why was the change made?
Customer requirements to remove the 250 byte limit on standard in and standard
out, motivated the change.
When was the change made?
The change is available via the following PTFs:
v V4R1 - 5769SS1 SF46810
v 5769TC1 SF47332
v V4R2 - 5769TC1 SF46558
What should the customer do?
The customer should use the Web Programming Guide to ensure that the programs
meet standard guidelines.

Lotus Notes Enhanced Integration
For V4R4M0, OS/400 option 24 (OS/400 Lotus Notes Enhanced Integration) is no
longer supported, and is deleted when upgrading to V4R4M0. A migration of the
data in (OS/400 Lotus Notes Enhanced Integration) must be accomplished before
the upgrade. IBM recommends migrating the data to Lotus Domino for AS/400.
For detailed migration instructions see the following URL:
http://www.as400.ibm.com/techstudio

OnDemand
Consideration when upgrading to 5769-RD1 OnDemand:
v If your target release is Version 4 Release 2 (or a later release) and your source
system has either of the following features installed:
– 5716-RD1 Option 1 - OnDemand output queue archival feature
– 5716-RD1 Option 2 - OnDemand object archival feature
And you plan to use either of the following features on your target system:
– 5769-RD1 Option 1 - OnDemand output queue archival feature
– 5769-RD1 Option 2 - OnDemand object archival feature
Then:
– For OnDemand migration and upgrade information, see the book LPS:
OnDemand for AS/400, GC41-5079-01.

How to Move Files That Have Been Saved with Storage Free Specified
If you have saved database files and specified STG(*FREE), you must take special
steps to transfer the descriptive information about those files to your RISC target
system. (All customers must do this, whether or not you have the Media and
Storage Extensions product installed.) When you save a database file and specify
STG(*FREE), the system saves the contents of the file. The system then deletes the
contents from the system copy of the file, so that the contents exist only on the
save media. The file description information, including a list of members, remains
on the system as a type of archival record. To create usable object descriptions for
your RISC target system, use the procedures that follow. If your source system
does not have adequate auxiliary storage to restore the contents of archival files,
you might need to make arrangements to use another system to restore your files
and save them again. Make sure that the system has a tape unit that is compatible
with the tape unit that you will have on your upgraded system.

How to Move Freed Database Files without New Members
Use the procedure below only if both of the following conditions are true:
1. The database file on the source system was previously saved with STG(*FREE).
2. No new members were added to the file after it was saved on the source
system.
If both conditions were true, move freed database files without new members as
follows:
1. For a physical file, use the
RSTOBJ

command or the
Appendix E. Considerations and Solutions

RSTLIB

command to restore the file. For a logical file, use the
RSTOBJ

command or the
RSTLIB

command to restore the based-on physical files.
2. If you need to save the files separately to make space available on your system,
use the
SAVOBJ or SAVLIB

command. Do not specify STG(*FREE). Make sure that you mark the save
tapes. You can then delete the files or save them again on different tapes with
STG(*FREE).
3. After you have restored the files to your target system, you can save them
again with STG(*FREE). The object description remains on your upgraded
system as an archival record.
If you have a file that has some members with contents and other members that
were saved with STG(*FREE), you must create a version of the file that has a
complete set of members with contents. You do this by restoring the members that
were saved with STG(*FREE). When the complete database file is on the system,
follow the procedure outlined in to move the file to your target system.
