In TCPIP the TELNET parameters are separated out from the TCPIP profile
member and check your syntax. Something's that were allowed under 1.4
are not allowed under 1.9. 

Look at JES and see what level you are running. You will probably create
whole new Spool and CKPT and do offload reload. 
LE Options have changed
But Most of all check your applications
Under RACF there are a couple new required started task AXR for REXX and
CEA Common Event Adapter
Those are just a few I can remember off the top of my head.

Subject: Any gotchas going from 1.4 to 1.9?

Greetings all,

(I posted this on Google groups a while ago but would like to reach a
larger 
audience.)

I've got a 1.4 system that needs to be upgraded to 1.9 before we get our

new z10.  Rather than going from 1.4 to 1.7 and then to 1.9, I'm
considering 
going straight to 1.9.

I've already got the 1.7 compat and fallback PTFs on the 1.4 system but
I 
don't really see the benefit to migrating to an unsupported OS.  I did 
something similar a few years ago when I took the OS/390 2.9 system to
z/OS 
1.4 in a single step.

It's a pretty straightforward set up.  No sysplex or shared resources.
Not 
much USS or anything like Java or web enablement.   There are a number
of 
usermods that will probably have to be reworked but I had to do that
last 
time.  Only 3 JES exits.

Does anyone know of any gotchas or showstoppers?  

Thanks in advance.
