While we didn't have exactly the same hardware mix, at one of our clients in November we were able to place a z14 and a z9 (with z/OS 1.12) side by side (shared DASD) and installed z/OS 2.3 on the z14 by downloading and doing the base installation of zos from the z9, then ipling the z14 and completing the installation from there. The only even semi difficult part was that I had to generate the initial IOCP on the z14 manually. I think we also "cheated" by generating the initial 2.3 IODF offsite and export/imported it to the z9 s that we could place it on the system volume for the new install, but that part may not have even been necessary as our IBM CE told us (afterwards of course) that the z14 would have been fine with one we generated for the "wrong" cpu. Alternatively, we could have got the COD, but we didn't want to wait. In all, the longest part of the installation was sitting at the HMC doing the initial upload because we couldn't figure out how to get FTP to work right.
