interface than the one used for the alert configurations present in
your configuration data set, the following panel is displayed:
You can choose the following upgrade options:
- 1 - Upgrade from downlevel table
- The Alert configurations are stored in ISPF tables. Choose this option if you decide to maintain
your old configuration with the alerts selected and destinations for each alert. The old
configuration tables will be converted to new format tables. If one of the configuration steps
requires additional information, it can be set to the status of
Req
instead of the desired state ofOK
. In this case, you must provide this information by using the corresponding action command. Configuration stepVer
, which means verify your configuration, can always be set toReq
, which means "required," to refresh the alert code. After selecting this option, you can no longer configure zSecure Alert with an earlier level ISPF interface. - 2 - Create new table
- Select this option when you do not want to keep your old configuration. A clean configuration is
in use and you must perform all configuration steps; that means all configuration steps have status
Req
. As with option 1, you can no longer configure zSecure Alert with an earlier level ISPF interface. - 3 - Cancel upgrade process
- Select this option when you have not yet upgraded all systems that share the configuration data set to the current software level.
