For Feature Code #0205, the customer must have purchased a new server with
enough hardware and disk unit to hold all of the data from the ″source″model as
well as any new data including any required IBM software (OS/400 and so forth).
Additionally,the RISC-to-RISC Data Migration process requires that the ″source″
model must be at the same version/release of OS/400 and Licensed Program
Products (LPPs) as that of the ″new″server which has been ordered/received.
Customers with Version3 (V3R7) on their ″source″model must upgrade to Version
4. It is recommended that they purchase Software Subscription forAS/400. They
must then order and upgrade to match the new server (V4R4 or V4R5) in order to
proceed with their data migration. V3R7 cannot be directly upgraded to V4R4 or
V4R5 therefore, to do this the source system will need to be upgraded to V4R2 or
V4R3 before upgrading to V4R4 or V4R5. Customers with Version4 must obtain
new server release of OS/400 licenses of the LPPs, either through new orders or
via Software Subscription for AS/400.
A LicenseAddendum will be provided to allow the customer to install and use the
copy of OS/400 (received with the newly ordered server) on their source model for
up to 70 days. This Addendum authorizes the customers to use the new Version
and Release on the source system for the sole purpose of migrating their data. The
previous Versionand Release must be reinstalled after the migration is completed.
The V4R4 or V4R5 licenses of OS/400 and the LPPs will only allow the products to
be run on one system at a time. Model 150 customers who are not at the new
server release of OS/400 must purchase the BasePak Upgrade (5649-EP5 for V4R4)
in addition to any upgrades for installed Optional Products in order to proceed
with their data migration. Feature Code #0205 provides for minimal pre loading of
the new server, inclusion of a special LicenseAddendum.
Feature Code #0205 differs from Feature Code #0203. FeatureCode #0203 SHOULD
NOT be ordered for iSeries 400 or AS/400 RISC-to-RISC data migrations as it is
designed exclusively for AS/400 CISC-to-RISC data migrations.
