Comments on: OS400-V5R4-Extended Base Support Failed http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/os400-v5r4-extended-base-support-failed/ Tue, 21 May 2013 23:11:32 +0000 hourly 1 By: tomliotta http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/os400-v5r4-extended-base-support-failed/#comment-79890 tomliotta Sat, 31 Jul 2010 10:35:50 +0000 #comment-79890 I agree that it seems highly questionable about retoring a V5R1 system (“entire system backup”) to a V5R4 system. That has the potential of being the fundamental source of the problem. It’s like restoring a complete Windows 2000 C: drive backup to a PC that had Windows Vista installed — unpredictable results.

Even managing to restore “license programs” alone is a highly questionable feat. Most likely none of them should even have been attempted.
