Choosing disk configuration

 

If you are using automatic installation to upgrade the i5/OS® operating system and do not want nonconfigured disk units added, PTFs are available that enable you to set your disk configuration option.

If you are upgrading from V5R2 to V5R4 and want to change your disk configuration, refer to the instructions in the topic Installing optional i5/OS PTF to choose disk configuration.

If you are currently on a V5R3 or V5R4 system and are replacing the operating system, do the following to keep your current disk configuration:

  1. Type GO LICPGM and press Enter.

  2. From the Work with Licensed Programs (LICPGM) menu, select option 5 (Prepare for install) and press Enter. The Prepare for Install display appears.

  3. Select the option to keep the disk configuration and press Enter. The Keep Disk Configuration display appears.

  4. At the Keep Disk Configuration prompt, type *YES and Press Enter.
