The Question is:

 
System is currentlly running 6.2 is there a need to upgrade to 7.1 for
yr2000?  Would one system be more compliant then the other?  Where can I
find a comparrison between the two operating systems?

The Answer is :

 
  As far as Y2K is concerned, there is no difference between OpenVMS V6.2
  and V7.1, once the Y2K ECO kit is installed.
 
  Please see the OpenVMS Y2K pages and innumerable Y2K discussions here
  for information on Y2K and on the recommended Y2K testing procedures.
 
  For the differences between OpenVMS V6.2 and V7.1, please see the new
  features and release notes manuals for the V7.0 and V7.1 releases.
