RE: Should we skip V5R1??

["McGivern, Tom" <Tom.McGivern@xxxxxxx>]

What's your upgrade schedule and comfort level with new OS's.  And is
there anything in 5.2 you NEED, or are you just getting off 4.5 because
of end-of-support?

In the last month I've upgraded 4 systems 4.5 to 5.1.  We opted to let
5.2 burn-in a little longer..  I'll upgrade 1Q or 2Q next year to 5.2 (I
think I've heard 5.1 is out of support next June).

We have several systems at V4R5 and several at V5R1. Need to upgrade the
V4R5 before year end. After hearing favorable comments on V5R2 from
COMMON, I thought I would pose the question: Should we go straight from
V4R5 to V5R2, skipping V5R1? Any gotchas? Anyone been down this path
yet?
