Have you checked on IBM Resourcelink for your machine(s), the number of missing
EC/MCLs? You can then use this info and list off the missing MCL details and/or
HMC MCL Details and then ask your IBM SSR
There are various answers. My experience: few hours.
What is few? I can't provide exact number, but definitely less than 8
hours. Maybe 3 is reasonable choice.
I did it several times (sometimes without CE), but never even it took
more than I describe above.
Single CPC, one HMC (included in the
mic change.
Thanks..

I don’t know that a couple days are accurate, unless the CE just doesn’t want
to work more than 8 hours. I will tell you though that it was a lengthy
process. Probably 8-10 hours if I remember right when we made that jump a
year or so ago. We normally allot 5-6 hours of time for IBM to com
