No z13 to report on, but upgrading to z12 was I think a similar process. Encryption in general has two disparate components: hardware and data (files).
-- We have never done a hardware upgrade that simultaneously involved DASD replacement. Even our z12 in a brand new data center started with DASD mirrored from the z196 site. Before the actual migration, we upgraded ICSF to the latest version. Mirroring that to the new data center took care of the file part. -- The same old cyber keys were defined to the z12 via HMC during installation. On the first IPL, everything was in place. I would be surprised if z13 involved any other action. . . .
