Enterprise Developer 2.3 requires an installation of
z/Server version 2.3 (V2R3) or higher.
Before upgrading an existing installation of
z/Server of a version earlier than version 2.3, Micro Focus recommends that you install
z/Server 2.3 on separate ports, and test this with AWM in
Enterprise Developer 2.3:
- Install
z/Server 2.3 on ports separate from your current installation of
z/Server. Keep the existing
z/Server as the productive server installation.
- Install
Enterprise Developer 2.3 and ensure that all server connections point to the
z/Server 2.3 installation.
- Test your remote AWM models against the server. For example:
- Test whether you expanding your defined data set filters works in MVS Explorer.
- Try to duplicate and delete a member in a PO data set.
- Edit and save a sequential MVS file or a member of a PO data set from the MVS Explorer.
- After all tests have successfully passed, roll out
Enterprise Developer 2.3 across your organization.
AWM in all installations should point to the
z/Server 2.3 installation.
- When all
Enterprise Developer installations have been upgraded successfully, the tasks started by the earlier version of
z/Server can be deactivated or uninstalled.
