Hi Radoslaw. Yes, you have to rename most of the datasets but it is not as bad as it sounds. I think I mapped the datasets to.target volumes and then filtered on the volume to get a list of all sysres datasets. Then you can change the CB. ST123456 prefix to null for all of those datasets in one operation. Repeat for DLIB datasets etc. you may want to leave some datasets as is - datasets such as PDMDIR and other package-related datasets which do not form part of the target system can be left as-is.
IIRC it helps is you can base you configuration on an existing software instance. If you did not use ZOsmf to create your previous z/os level you can get z/osmf to create a software instance - it examines the old DDDEFs. That is one of the things that surprised me - I could not see how it could set sensible defaults without a prior version of a ‘profile’ until I saw how it worked. I do not understand all of the fuss about z/osmf - software installation works quite well and is an improvement on the ISPF dialogues in many areas. For instance you do not have to remember the dialogue commands which you may have used once every 2 years. I am also very impressed how quickly IBM (Chinese labs) react to implement corrections and new features. The security checking feature is very good.
