This information is necessary to set up and enable the tape unit as an
alternate installation device. For information about using an alternate
installation device, see the Backup and Recovery book.
RISC-to-RISC Data Migration
1. Verify the following information before proceeding with the data migration:
v Verify that the latest OS/400 cumulative PTF package and specific software
release PTFs were installed on the source system.
v Save tapes from the source system
v Latest system configuration list from hardware service manager
v Latest device descriptions printout of the source system
v Latest controller descriptions printout of the source system
v Latest PTF level printout from the source system
v PC setup for Operations Console using EZ-Setup CD-ROM and the
Operations Console Setup book, if the Operations Console was ordered
with the new server
v Latest complete and accurate label location chart or work sheet from the
source system
v Verify that the Physical Planning items were completed. Correct power,
uninterruptible power supply, cabling, and required space for the new
server
2. Using the Backup and Recovery book, chapter 4, checklist 17, perform a
recovery after a complete system loss. Follow all the steps to task 10, but
before you perform task 10 you must do steps 3 through 9:
3. Run the WRKHDWPRD command to determine whether devices are in
different locations than they were on the source system.
4. On the command line, type WRKHDWPRD and press the Enter key.
5. On the Work with hardware products display, select the Change description label
locations option. Press the Enter key.
6. Read the information on the Using Change Label Locations display and press the
Enter key. This identifies a controller or device description that no longer has
a valid resource on the system. The Change Description Label Locations display
appears. Determine whether the new target system has communications lines
or storage than the source had. If so, use the Basic System Operation,
Administration, and Problem Handling book to check the work management
objects and tune the system performance.
7. Do you have any locations that do not match the label information on the
system? If so, change them to be correct.
8. Use the Software Installation book, chapter 10, to install any new LPPs or PTFs.
9. Return to Checklist 17 of the Backup and Recovery book and continue with Task
10.
10. Change the QAUTOCFG, QIPLTYPE, and QPFRADJ system values to the
desired values. For more details, refer to the book Basic System Operation,
Administration, and Problem Handling , SC41-5206-03.
11. Verify that all objects were restored from the source system. Use the Backup
and Recovery book to fix any discrepancies.
12. If any changes were made following the recovery process on checklist 17, save
the entire system. Use Option 21 on the Save menu. For more information
about saving the entire system using option 21, refer to any of the following:
