Updating Existing Fileset Configurations
Updating Existing Fileset Configurations
A fileset created while your site used a previous version of Open System Services can
be used unmodified with the current software. However, the contents of the
ZPCONFIG and ZPMNTTAB configuration files from release version updates (RVUs)
preceding G05.00 no longer affect the current configuration of your filesets.
If you had a G-series RVU preceding G05.00 installed, then the first time you start the
OSS file system after installing a G05.00 or later G-series RVU, new configuration files
are created from your existing ZPCONFIG and ZPMNTTAB files, as shown in Table 5-3
on page 5-35. The state of all your existing filesets are included in the new
configuration files, and the old configuration files are renamed to ZXCONFIG and
ZXMNTTAB, respectively, so that you have them if you need to fall back to an earlier
version of Open System Services.
If you had a G05.00 or later G-series RVU installed, then the first time you start the
OSS file system after installing a more current RVU, upgraded configuration files are
created from your existing configuration files, as shown in Table 5-3 on page 5-35. The
old configuration database files are not destroyed, in case you need to fall back to an
earlier version of Open System Services.
Removing Older Configuration Files
If you have upgraded from an earlier RVU, you might be able to save some disk space
by deleting old database files. Whether you should delete files depends on whether
you are:
•
Upgrading From a G05.00 or Subsequent G-Series RVU on page 5-35
•
Upgrading From an RVU Preceding G05.00 on page 5-36
Upgrading From a G05.00 or Subsequent G-Series RVU
Do not delete the older OSS Monitor database files (ZPOSFSET, ZPOSPARM,
ZPOSSERV, ZPOSFS00, and ZPOSFS01). If you need to fall back to the RVU you
upgraded from, you need those database files.
