z/OSMF is not required but downloading and using the workflows into z/OSMF, which replaced the migration guide really helps with migration actions IMHO. I was very hesitant to use z/OSMF and the workflow, I found it aided in my migration Carmen Vitullo

I am not one of the system programmers but have been tasked with getting this answer for them (and to manage them). My systems guys like SMPe and ServerPacks, etc but z/OSMF is “Alienware” to them – must I tell them to get over it and go with the workflow ?
