Thanks everyone. Our current situation is, we have zBC10 running z/OS v1.12. We want to upgrade everything to current, including z/OS and hardware. I understand we can't get support for either z/OS or zBC12, but I am looking for options and if anyone has successfully done this type of upgrade. If so, what steps were taken?
- Can we get maintenance for z/OS v1.12, understanding we might have to pay IBM something for it? - Will z/OS v1.12 work on z14, I understand the answer is maybe. But, has anyone done it? If so and willing to share, we would like to know - If not, we are looking at the possibility of move z/OS v1.12 to zBC12, upgrade to z/OS v2.3, then z14. Again, we probably would need maintenance on z/OS v1.12 Jerry -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richards, Robert B.

Jerry, Your system is out of service. That means you won't be able to get *for free* any PTFs released after EOS date. That means your system may not recognize z14 correctly. It does NOT mean it won't work at all, but there's a risk. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland W dniu 2019-01-07 o 14:01, Richards, Robert B. pisze: > https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=an&subtype > =ca&appname=gpateam&supplier=897&letternum=ENUS218-458 > > IBM Customized Offerings Driver V3.1, a prebuilt, stand-alone driving system > to meet IBM z/OS installation requirements, has been updated. > > The IBM(r) Customized Offerings Driver is a prebuilt, stand-alone driving > system that can be used to install z/OS(r) ServerPac, z/OS SystemPac (in > dump-by-dataset format, where available), and z/OS Custom-Built Product > Delivery Offering (CBPDO) packages when you do not have a driving system that > meets the minimum requirements for IBM z/OS installation.
