No, it is not required. I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.4 6 months ago using a serverpack.
Rex -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Bruce Lightsey Sent: Friday, January 15, 2021 9:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [External] clarification please - is z/OSMF required for migrating z/OS from v2.3 to v2.4 ? I am not one of the system programmers but have been tasked with getting this answer for them (and to manage them). My systems guys like SMPe and ServerPacks, etc but z/OSMF is “Alienware” to them – must I tell them to get over it and go with the workflow ?
