Chapter 1. Overview of RISC-to-RISC Upgrades and Data
Migrations
The road map lists important considerations and activities that are critical to the
successful model upgrade of a system. Although this road map is not designed to
be an all inclusive how-to source for activities relating to upgrading your system, it
covers the essentials by guiding you to the proper source. Follow all the steps in
the order presented and notify your IBM
®
representative for assistance if you run
into difficulties.
This information does not specifically cover hardware feature upgrades for the
following features:
v Feature conversion 5065 to 5074
v Feature conversion 5066 to 5079
v Feature conversion 5075 to 5074
If you are performing one of these hardware feature upgrades in a partitioned
environment, see the Logical Partitioning web site at the following address:

This road map also covers how to perform a model to model data migration. A
data migration can be performed from almost any model AS/400
®
to any model
AS/400. The source model must be at the same release as the new model AS/400
to correctly complete the data migration.
What Is In this Road Map
This road map covers the following upgrades:
Notes:
1. The source system might need a hardware upgrade before the customer starts
Program Temporary Fixes (PTFs) and prior to installing V4R4 or V4R5
software. This is to get the source system compatible with the target system.
7xx models require V4R3 or later and 8xx models require V4R5.
2. SSP is not supported in V4R5.
v Model 170 to Model 170
There are no upgrades into or out of a model 170. The Data Migration section of
this book covers the procedure used to perform a data move from the source
system to the new model AS/400.
v Model 270 to Model 270
There are no upgrades into or out of a model 270. The Data Migration section of
this book covers the procedure used to perform a data move from the source
system to the new model AS/400.
v Models 5xx to Models 7xx
v Models 6xx to Models 7xx
v Models 7xx to Models 7xx
v Models Sxx or 5xx to Models 8xx
There are no model upgrades into a model 8xx from a model 5xx, SB1, SB2, or
SB3. However, some hardware may be moved from the 5xx into a migration I
