Considerations

Before beginning the upgrade tasks, consider these points:

• The JCL and SQL for the upgrade process are in the JCL and SQL libraries.
• The options selected on the CEINSTAL Host Encyclopedia Maintenance Menu were:
  • Build Encyclopedia Parameter Files
  • Build Sample Encyclopedia Utility JCL
  • Build JCL/SQL to Upgrade in Place
• You must run the jobs in the order listed. Failure to do so causes unpredictable results.
• The DB2 database status must be read or write.
• CA recommends using a new plan prefix.
• Each job must run on the CPU containing the Host Encyclopedia and the DB2 tables.

Important! All models should be checked in, and an image copy of the Encyclopedia made, before beginning an upgrade. This establishes a recovery point, should one be needed.
