    What are you upgrading from/to?

    Adjust the link below to the target release.  Release is imbedded in the link.  For example, this one is 7.6  

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.6.0?topic=software-installing-upgrading-deleting-i-related

    If you stay within the boundaries of x+2 (example 7.4 or 7.5 to 7.6) then these instructions are top notch.
