When the Business Continuity Manager version before upgrading is 5.1 or later, you can use the
YKDSPENV command to check the values of the Business Continuity Manager environment variables.
For details about the YKDSPENV command, see “YKDSPENV Command Syntax” (page 30).
The following table lists the system symbols that are used when you perform an upgrade installation.
Check the settings for these system symbols before you upgrade.
Table 23 (page 47) lists the system symbols that are used during an upgrade installation of the
new version. Check the settings for these system symbols before upgrading.

Checking the User SVC Number
Check the user SVC number because you must assign the same number after upgrading. The
method of checking the user SVC number varies depending on whether the user SVC was registered
with the YKSETENV command or the IEASVCxx parmlib member.
• When the user SVC was registered by using the YKSETENV command
Check the value (user SVC number) specified in the YKALCSVC command parameter because
you will use this value during an upgrade installation.
• When the user SVC was registered by using the IEASVCxx parmlib member
Check the value set in the system symbol in Table 24 (page 47).
