RE: V5R2 to V5R4 Upgrade and queues

[John McKee <jmmckee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That command displayed interesting information on our system.  When I started
here, we had an E70, running (I thing v3r1).  Conversion to RISC and three
upgrades later, creation date and time are: 11/14/92 03:40:38

So, I take it that the object itself was moved from platform to platform.  I
have no idea if the content also moved in the early days (before my 
time). Just interesting that the creation date is unchanged despite 
hardware,
operating syatem, and serial number changes.  Restoring an object means
restoring an object, I suppose.
