If you are planning for a complete IBM® i software release upgrade,
ensure you have the correct media for your upcoming tasks.
- Locate the software distribution media. Verify that the
optical media for Licensed Internal Code and
the operating system are for IBM i
7.1.
When you receive software for a new release, you should
receive optical media for at least Licensed Internal Code, the operating
system, and licensed programs.
You could also receive optical media for secondary languages
and other types of software products, such as Programming Requests
for Price Quotation (PRPQs) and licensed program offerings (LPOs).
Media labels and their contents lists
the names and product identifiers of licensed programs.
- Verify that the media you received contains
the correct primary and secondary languages.
Feature codes for language version lists
the feature codes of the primary or secondary languages.
Note: If the logical partitions on your system have different
primary languages, make sure you have media for each primary language.
