software for the required and desired partitions.A PDF version of this
manual is available from the iSeries Information Center under System
planning and installation -> Hardware and software -> Software and
licensed programs -> Install software.
Important: If you are using logical partitions, update all your partitions to
V5R1, if needed.
__ 8. Delete any unused device configuration descriptions (delete unused line,
line descriptions, and non-reporting resources).
Important: Todelete line and device and descriptions, use the WRKLIND and
WRKDEVD commands and verify that all the descriptions listed are in use. If

obtained or performed the following:
a. OS/400 is current (Youdetermined whether you needed to replace
software and replaced Licensed Internal Code, operating system, and
licensed programs if needed.)
b. PTFs are current
c. Saved your current system (recommended as recovery data in case of
disaster)
__ 10. If you do not have a current system backup that allows you to recover in
case of disaster, save the entiresystem on each partition. Make sure that
you save the system and data on a tape unit that is compatible with the
tape unit on the target system. Tosave the 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:
