Answer Wiki:
IBM provides a Memo to Users document for each release. When preparing to go to V5R4 you should go to the V5R4 Information Center, Select About information center, and then Select Memo to users. These actions will bring you to <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzaq9/rzaq9.pdf">this</a> PDF.

Hi,

Normally you shouldn’t need to alter any of your CL, RPG or COBOL programs when upgrading. There is very rarely functionality removed.

If you have CL programs saving/restoring for previous releases (for customers for example), then you may need to change the save commands (TGTRLS parameter).
