Step 1

Save configuration, component, NLS, and any other files from the product library (UNVPRD*** / UNIVERSAL) that may contain information needed after the new installation.

Step 2

Save any files from the command reference library (UNVCMDREF) and temporary library (UNVTMP*** / UNVTMP) that are needed, as these libraries will be deleted by the uninstall process.

Step 3

Follow the release-appropriate uninstall process (see Product Removal) and the New Release installation procedure (see IBM i Installation - Upgrade Installation to New Release#Install Install (Default or Custom), below, to install the new release.

Copy any customized code page files from the UNVNLS file members from the previous release to the newly installed UNVNLS file.
 

Note
titleNote

Do not simply copy the old UNVNLS file to replace the new UNVNLS file. The new files contain many updates.

Step 2

If needed, manually update the newly installed configuration file, UNVCONF, from the file of the previous release. The new file contains many new configuration options. At a minimum, the Workload Automation license entries must be entered into the configuration file members for the managers of each licensed product.

Step 3

If the original component file (UNVCOMP) was modified, update the newly installed UNVCOMP file for each of the modified members.

Step 4

If either or both of the exit programs (UCMSJOBI and UCMSJOBT) in the previous release had been customized, you likewise must customize the newly installed exit programs. The exit programs are located in the product library, UNVPRD511.
 

Note
titleNote

You cannot replace UCMSJOBI for 5.1.0 with programs of the same name from previous releases without a possible conflict. If you must use older programs because their source is no longer available, rename them and call them from the new exit program. See UCMSJOBI in Universal Command Server for IBM i - Commands for additional information.
