I want to upgrade from Version 6.x to 7.x in DataStage XE/390.
Can any one suggest what are steps to be followed?

Take a backup of your DataStage server. Take an export of the project. Verify that each is good. Axiom: if you have good backups, you'll never need them. Corollary: Disaster occurs only when you lack good backups.

Install as per instructions, not forgetting the new run time library on the mainframe. This should automatically handle upgrading of components in existing jobs in all projects.
