System restore/Migration V5R4 AND V6R1
Hi ,
Software/Hardware used:
AS/400
We are panning to upgrade our 520(v5r4) BOX TO new 720(v6r1) . I have ran ANZOBJCVN command which states that all ours Objects are compatiable to V6R1. I will be doing Fullsystem save on my 520 and then restore the data on new 720. My question is are there any steps which i have to follow while restore i.e. is there any sequence for restore like first userid , then Lib etc.
Is there any IBM document for it .
Thanks .

I am sure there is a version for V6R1 as well. You can look on IBM’s site as easy as I can. I ran a D/R test restore using Appendix D, Same serial number – use Appendix C.
Copy/paste all of this to a word document for future reference.
Check with all of your third party software companies to make sure their software will run on the target version/release and see if there are any updates, ptf’s needed for ANY portion of their software (GUI interfaces included – this bit me once).
Before you begin: make coffee.
Follow the IBM guide to get the OS loaded.
As you go through the process, you may want to WRKSYSVAL and change/set Qalwobjrst = *all, QAUTOCFG = ON, QDATFMT = as required, QJOBMSGQFL = *WRAP, QLMTDEVSSN = 0, QLMTSECOFR = 0, QPFRADJ = 2, QPWDWXPIRV = *NOMAX, QVFYOBJRST = 1.
Change Command Defaults: rstcfg srm(*none, signoff log(*list).
Change Message Description: CPI1154 to 10, CPR9E7D to 10, CPF9E72 to 10, CPI1160 to 10, CPI70E1 to 10, CPI1165 to 10.

Rstusrprf dev(TAPDEV) endopt(*leave) mail(*yes) alwobjdif(*all)
Rstcfg obj(*all) dev(TAPDEV) endopt(*leave) srm(*none) alwobjdir(*all) output(*print)
Rstlib (*NONSYS, *ALLUSR, *IBM, *ANY etc…)

rst dev(‘/qsys.lib/ TAPDEV.devd’) obj((‘/*’) (‘/qsys.lib’ *omit) (‘/qdlw’ *omit)) alwobjdif(*all) endopt(*rewind)
Unload tape if you have any saved changed objects to restore on a different tape.
Rstobj – on any individual objects saved with SAVCHGOBJS after SAVSYS tape was created.
rstlib savlib(*any or *nonsys) dev(TAPDEV) endopt(*leave) option(*new) mbropt(*new) alwobjdif(*none) output(*print)
This will restore all objects encountered on the tape that have not restored yet, like logical files missed on the first RSTLIB *nonsys.
rstaut usrprf(*all)
pwrdwnsys option(*immed) restart(*yes) iplsrc(b)
Start checking your messages, reports, applications.
Good luck.
