Migration

This topic describes migration considerations.

Your plan for migrating to the new level of ICSF should include information from a variety of sources. These sources of information describe topics such as coexistence, service, hardware and software requirements, installation and migration procedures, and interface changes.

Attention: Although you are migrating to a new release, you should review the information in Installation, initialization, and customization; especially review customization steps that may have changed since your last migration.

If this migration also includes a hardware upgrade be sure to have your Master Keys available. Once Migration is complete, the Master Keys may need to be loaded and set. Review Installation, initialization, and customization for information on setting Master Keys.

An IPL is required when installing a new release of ICSF (it is possible for ICSF control blocks like the DACC and CCVT to persist in storage across an ICSF restart).
