RE: New version of HMC.

["Burns, Bryan" <Bryan_Burns@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pete,
Thanks Pete but I jumped the gun and didn't realize that our load source A is not the same as our flash perm.  Here're all our flashcodes:
     DISPLAY/ALTER/DUMP                                     
RUNNING MACRO: FLASHLEVELS                                  
LS FLASH SYNC ENABLED.                                      
HMC MANAGED                                                 
BASE LEVEL:                                                 
SIDE            DATE/TIME       MI KEYWORD   PTFS (V5R3M0)  
-------------   -------------   ----------   ---------------
MEMORY          20060505/1020    SF240_219   MH00678        
FLASH P         20060505/1020    SF240_219   MH00678        
FLASH T         20060505/1020    SF240_219   MH00678        
LOAD SOURCE A   20041215/1425    SF222_075   MH00199
LOAD SOURCE B   20060505/1020    SF240_219   MH00678

Any comments?
Thanks,
Bryan

Bryan,

	Just do not upgrade the HMC to V7, as you need to be on SF240_299 or
higher for that.

Pete,
Thanks.  This was very helpful to me as well, allaying some concern I had
about our FSP level. Not that we're planning to upgrade, but it's nice to
know that we're ahead of the curve being at SP240_219.

It basically says that both the Temp and Perm of the FSP have 01SF225_096,
and that is also the code that is running.  This is pretty got dated code,
as we discussed in a previous email.

	Then inside of LIC (of OS/400) you have PTF MF00678 loaded into the
A side (you would see this with DSPPTF 5722-999 as Perm applied).  Then on
the B side you have PTF MH00948, and if we did a DSPPTF 5722-999 we would
see this as Temp applied.  

	If you decide to upgrade to V5R4, you would have a problem, as the
FSP would need to be at min level of 01SF235_160, and you are only at
01SF225_096.  

	Pete
