Thank you very much Janet! Please keep me posted. Thanks, Emil.
Hello Emil, I assigned this Aha! Idea to one of our lead engineers in the migration area.
In the meantime, I see that we have documented the requirement for APAR PH37108 through the following external means:
IBM Documentation: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/13?topic=13-required-maintenance-db2-installation-migration
Db2 13 GA Announcement letter: https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?subtype=ca&infotype=an&appname=iSource&supplier=897&letternum=ENUS222-003
Db2 13 GA Program Directory: https://publibfp.dhe.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/i1355340.pdf
DB2-L discussion about the topic: https://www.idug.org/discussion/db2-13-migration-aha-idea
Correct, the APAR states: This APAR must be applied to all members of a data sharing group and Db2 12 must be started on all members before one of the members can be started with Db2 V13 to migrate the Db2 catalog. Non-data sharing Db2 subsystems must also run with this APAR on Db2 12 before attempting to migrate to Db2 V13.
I heard in a Db2 conference that FL 510 is no sufficient to upgrade to Db2 13 for z/OS, but that we also need SPE PH37108. Externalizing this info is a must!
