RE: Upgrading from 5.3 to 5.4 this weekend

["Paul Nelson" <nelsonp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just did 3 upgrades on HA machines this week using image catalogs. Get
somebody to shove the CD's into the machine for you and you can do the job
remotely. Make sure you read the V5R4 upgrade documentation. Twice. If you
follow that to the letter, you should be in good shape.

A few questions.

First, is this a good idea for this weekend considering the time change?

Second, I was reading some other threads and I kept seeing "pre-upgrade
PTFs". What is this referring to? Third, I have CDs, can I load them in as
Image Catalogs? If so, how do I do it? Is it as simple as "QSYS/ADDIMGCLGE
IMGCLG(V54RUPG) FROMDEV(OPT01)" ?
