Problem with AS400 Automatic Upgrade from V4R5M0 to V5R2M0, using a Software Installation Tape.
Why does the ‘QUSRSYS’ lib always end up in error during this process? To get round this, we perform a RSTLIB of QUSRSYS manually. Has anyone else had this problem, as its currently stopping us from upgrading our remote V4R5 sites automatically.
