Why customer move out from mainframe

What they lost ?

Why they decide it ?

Any political decision involve ?

Is it because of money ?

Are there no local vendor to provide mainframe support ?

Why they said it is expensive ?

Small DC migrate to open system-and then in the future the DC  need larger DC to cater hundred of midrange servers.

MES for mainframe .

Few key notes to take care : 

1. Read the instruction from 1st page until the last page 

2. Make sure part for save upgrade legacy data . 

3. If you already power off the old machine , you need to power it everything back and connect to HMC

I've tried just power on the SE but there is no option to save upgrade legacy data. 

The option only in HMC and HMC must the the CPC. For CPC to be available , it must be power ON . 

4. Once the save upgrade legacy data done , keep the media .

5. Install the new mainframe and power ON. SE will ask for the save upgrade media . 

6. Insert the media and holaaa..SE will configure but itself and reboot for a few times. 

7. Then insert to the other SE and will do the same thing . 

This instruction is based on actual field installation . Please read you MES manual first .
