Issue/Introduction

Where do I find the procedure to upgrade Datacom Server from 15.0 to 15.1?

Environment

Release: 15.1

Resolution

There are no specific upgrade steps required to upgrade to Datacom Server 15.1.

On the mainframe install the 15.1 server software from the pax file and apply PTF LU13659 CONTINUOUS DELIVERY LEVEL SET 15.1.01

Then switch to use the new software by modifying the Server startup JCL.
Use your existing Mainframe Server startup options with 15.1

On the client platforms install the new 15.1 client software.

The client software is distributed in the following PTFs:
USS: LU12256
Windows: LU12218
Linux: LU12219

Note that the Server 15.1 JDBC driver requires a Java 11 or higher JRE. It does not run with a Java 8 JRE. 

This applies to all client platforms: Windows, Linux and z/OS USS.
