Clients requesting fewer operating system releases; and longer support cycles– Major release upgrades can be disruptive for a business
Interim technology refreshes will provide new functions and I/O support – Simpler to install on a current release and less disruptive
2012 does not have a major release, because key capabilities have been delivered using Technology Refreshes and similar functional updates

Improve Integrity
Eradicate any altered programs that already exist
Extend unique ability to remove any future code corruption– Any runnable MI application, without program
source– No ongoing updates needed
Prevent load of non-i5/OS "system state" program– Make system more robust

Improve Performance
• Faster activation, procedure calls, pointer use• More efficient memory handling
– Use more hardware facilities– Remove software teraspace limit emulation
• Generate processor-specific code– Can “opt out” of adaptive code generation
(ACG) if desired• New create options, no source changes required:
– Optimize procedure call argument passing, between modules (up to +20%)
– Defer service program activation (can significantly improve application startup)

IBM Power Systems
Improve Functionality
• Theme: ease application development, deployment• Teraspace:
– ALL programs now enabled– 100x larger
• Add thread local static storage– Ease thread-safe programming
• RPG H spec ‘THREAD(*CONCURRENT)’• Individual variable declaration qualifiers:
RPG: ‘static(*allthread)’• C++,C: ‘__thread’
• Improved coverage: Performance EXplorer, trace – No need to recompile first with different options

IBM i Program Conversion Program conversion will be required to run with IBM i 6.1 or IBM i 7.1 – Program conversion automatically upgrades software to exploit latest
system enhancements– Not required for POWER6, which can run IBM i 5.4– Required for POWER7, can run on IBM i 6.1 or IBM i 7.1 Conversion requires program's creation data (observability) – Note that all programs created for V5R1 or later releases have had their
creation data automatically saved during program creationTool available now to analyze program conversion for i5/OS V5R3 & V5R4 – Identifies potential issues, if any, and estimates
conversion timeProgram conversion is performed during install/restore of applications, at first use or at scheduled time

Objects that Cannot Convert? What next? Analyze Objects reveals some programs with no observability and source cannot be found? 1. determine which program objects are part of vendor packages which can be
replaced by newer versions2. determine which program objects need to be replaced
• Examine "last used date" in object itself *** If suspect vendor packages are not being used, run the "last used"
inquiry before deciding to update vendor packages3. from remaining objects, determine which ones have source
• inside each source member, the "last changed date" is stored• Similar information is stored in the object itself • Run a "match" program for "source code name, type, source file, and last
changed date" with the program object "source file, source member, type and last changed date"
• Matches mean 95% certainty that source and object match4. find a code de-construction product
• Often costly; may be unpredictable

What is the IBM Pre-Upgrade Verification Tool?
• ‘As-is’ tool developed by IBM to help ensure a successful IBM i (i5/OS) upgrade
– Tool checks to see if key required pre-upgrade steps have been successfully completed
• If not, the steps that were missed or completed incorrectly are flagged
• YOU then have the opportunity to successfully complete the missing/incorrect steps
Important – the tool itself does not automatically perform any corrective actions/missed steps
• Useful to ‘anyone preparing for an upgrade’– Source: OS/400 V5R2M0 and above– Target : up to IBM i 7.1
