I have defined my 2.3 instance and my 2.4 instance, getting the CSI - ZONE info, products is not a big deal, getting datasets and datasets info is not so intuitive, actions/view/datasets, other options are a pull down from the actions bar.

I still have yet to find how to update / get RSU maint and define or change anything once the instance is defined but I've not really spent too much time either.

the only difference with my 2.3 and 2.4 instance is the 2.4 serverpac order came with a link to download and import the workflow that replaced the migration guide.

2.4 will probably be my last order/install since I too am planning retirement and someone else will need to figure this out.

I wonder since my company does not allow access from my mainframe systems to the internet, what protocol will be used to query my CSI's, maint level? get service?

As others have said, I've never had a serverpac come in that need not need the datasets to be enlarged, or changed, some linklist datasets were defined with secondary extents! most like MIGLIB, LINKLIB LPALIB SCEE* were defined very small and my first maint always blows up with E37's

I like to have time to read TFM, but there's too much going on for one person right now.

Ed,
   How would this even work?  Or be complete.. SMPE doesn’t know about my 
SERVERPAC customizations.  Or how about the CPAC. **  datasets or other 
operational names I setup.

How about my master catalog or usercatalog names..  and many other things..  I 
don’t understand how this would help or solve the layout issues.

you to define your prior z/OS release right now as a Software Instance."

I do not want to assume that I completely understand your suggestion.
She means for you to go into the Software Management application in z/OSMF and 
add a new Software Instance. Choose your existing global CSI and target zone as 
appropriate.
