Upgrade to a New Release Page

Upgrade to a New Release Page

Select whether to upgrade by using existing or new data set names.
Upgrade by Using Existing Data Set Names
Uses the same names as the existing installation for the message, sample, and load libraries. If you select this option, you cannot add or change data sources.
When you select this option, the z/OS Installation Assistant completes the following tasks:
  • Populates the staging RUNLIB and BINLIB libraries.
  • Backs up existing execution, sample, and load libraries.
  • Copies upgrade libraries to the existing library names.
  • Maintains existing data set names for VSAM files, the USERLIB data set, PowerExchange Logger for z/OS logs, PowerExchange Condense data sets, and the PowerExchange Agent cache data set.
If you select this option, you do not have to change any existing JCL.
Upgrade by Using New Data Set Names
Uses new data set names for the message, sample, and load libraries. You can also add or change data sources.
When you select this option, the z/OS Installation Assistant completes the following tasks:
  • Creates new load and sample libraries.
  • Maintains existing data set names for VSAM files, the USERLIB, PowerExchange Logger for z/OS logs, PowerExchange Condense data sets, and the PowerExchange Agent cache data set.
  • Provides new, customized versions of PowerExchange procedures in the new PROCLIB library.
If you select this option, you must edit existing JCL to specify the new library names.
This setting corresponds to the <xbackupuseexisting> variable in the INSTPARM file. Valid variable values are 0 (upgrade by using new data set names) or 1 for (upgrade by using existing data set names).
