Title: upgrading CMOD z/OS 9.5 to 10.?
Post by: bgiannelli on March 26, 2021, 10:25:22 AM

Hi I am sure this is a very old question...……
What are the basic steps upgrading from v9.5 to 10.1 or 10.5?
I looked over the docs and they seem to point to USS commands.
is the upgrade done purely in USS?
can I upgrade directly to v10.5?
thanks in advance
Bill

The upgrade steps are in the readme files:

V10.5 README

https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-content-manager-ondemand-zos-v105-readme (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-content-manager-ondemand-zos-v105-readme)

V10.1 README

Yes, the upgrade is in USS.

Yes, you can upgrade directly to 10.5.  The 10.5 readme has instructions.

If you upgrade to 10.1 be sure to check out my 10.1 release notes thread here in the z/OS Server section.

If you upgrade directly to 10.5 check out both my 10.1 and 10.5 release notes thread.

What trips up upgrades the most?  Exits not working on a newer release.
