Migrate to the new release of z/OSMF
Description
As in previous releases, migrating to the new release of z/OSMF includes running the script izumigrate.sh. In z/OS V2R2, this script is enhanced to create a customized IZUPRMxx parmlib member, based on the configuration settings from your current (old) system. The parmlib member replaces the interactive scripts that you used to configure z/OSMF in previous releases.
Table 1 provides more details about this migration action. Use this information to plan your changes to the system.

Steps to take
For ServerPac users, use the jobs and documentation supplied with your ServerPac order to create an initial instance of z/OSMF. Installations that install z/OSMF from a Custom-Built Product Delivery Option (CBPDO) software delivery package, or from a ServerPac order using the software upgrade method of installation, should follow the instructions in the migration chapter in IBM z/OS Management Facility Configuration Guide. This work includes running the izumigrate.sh script on the z/OS V2R2 system.
After you complete the ServerPac installation, you can add plug-ins to z/OSMF through the Configuration Workflow, as described in IBM z/OS Management Facility Configuration Guide.
