Matt,
At the end of October we did just what you're doing. No
problems putting in on the existing OS on the existing frame. As far
as I know, and I've done this several times before, that PSP maint is
not a problem to go on ahead to time as unless you're actually
running the machine that uses it, the code just sits there. A lot of
the PTF's are for HCD to gen ahead.
At 02:46 PM 3/26/2008, you wrote:
Well, you COULD just put it on and see if it IPLs.
But FWIW, we did the same thing a little over a year ago. I'm
pretty sure we were at 1.4 and there was considerably more service
than 3 PTFs. Ran on the z890 just fine.

Subject: z9 BC Hardware Upgrade
We maybe moving from a z890 to a z9 BC machine. We are running
zos1.7 at RSU0709 maintenance level. I checked the hardware bucket
for the z9-bc and ran the extract file through the host compare
program and found only 3 PTF's required. My question is how do I
determine if these PTF's can coexist on both machines? There seems
to be no coexistence information in the PTF.
Thanks Matt
