This will differ for each customer and there will be a number of dependencies. Key phases should cover (each topic will have its on subtasks):
1) Physical Planning (physical planning/power/space/channel cabling/network connectivity/HMCs etc etc) 2) Operating System levels etc 3) Capacity Planning. LPAR planning/configuration 4) ISV Software/products levels 5) Applications 6) DR/Backup 7) Operations procedures I am sure there are other tasks and these will again depend on the experience and skill level of those who are doing the 'installation of or migration to the z15' A combination of the the following: z15 Redbook (SG24-8860) and the z15 Installation Manual for Physical Planning (GC28-7002) may help you in creating a Project Plan.

My manager generally wants to know what are the phases of the project(for example if someone is rolling out z15). Could someone share the phases that you go through generally for a Mainframe hardware implementation.
