Either way you should do the ANZOBJCVN first as outlined in the Memo to
Users (MTU) for 6.1 and 7.1. See the rest of BOTH MTU's for other things
to watch for.
Yes, upgrading the one machine first is the way I would do it. It is the
most reliable way to do it. See "Recovering your system to a different
system" at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/topic/rzarm/rzarmsteps2.htm
Since your hardware seems compatible you shouldn't have to use the other
method
But, some others argue for the other method. Saves running the upgrade.
Also, you can get your drives formatted beforehand and that can save some
serious time. See "Restoring previous release user data to a new system":

If you want to test it out first and then resync see "System
synchronization: Planning and procedures"
