Okay I am going to retract the dataset names issue. Either my z/OSMF decided to play nice now, or I did something wrong.
I can modify all the names to my preferred names and HLQ.. So let me continue to see what happens.. It sure would have been nice to just retrieve my CPAC.SAVE.CONFIG file. But okay..

First you cant fix the dataset names, you can only change the prefix, We use SYS1.qualifier for all datasets. When I run the server it just appends SYS1SSA as a HLQ and I am off running. Next SMPE datasets, I use SMPE.ZOS2x.qualifier and then for my Targets I add in the Zone name. z/OSMF insist on adding SYS1 to it, which stuffs in into the wrong catalog for renames. Then there are no work-arounds, if the panels don’t build what you want, your done. And to be honest I already have z/OS 2.5 installed and IPLed, but you have buried the migration guide, so I can guess but would like to have that as the first think I see when I install. Unless it someplace else less obvious. Will revisit in 2+ years...
