If you have CPUID's in the system config file then you will need to update them for the new cpu.. On the other hand if you just have a stetement like this you don't need to do anything.

We are upgrading from z9 to z196 soon. Is there a CPUID carried in SYSTEM CONFIG which I must change?

Just because we're paranoid, does not necessarily mean everyone is not out to get us.
