Gurus,
I am getting ready to upgrade my Alpha server 800 from 4.0d to 4.0f. I was wanting some advise and/or lessons learned on the upgrade. If there are any problems with 4.0f, please tell me that also.
Let me give you some info on my setup:
Alpha server 800
4 scsi drives
not running LSM
2 dlt drives
1 cd drive
1 floppy
my system is configured with Advfs
All my other mount points are ufs.
I do have some questions.
1. There is a caution about having the system configured with Advfs. Did anyone else have to copy and restore files after the install per instructions (section 1.4.5 in install manual).
2. The install manual makes a lot of references to firmware. There are a lot of cautions (section 1.4.6). Did anyone else have issues with this? Did you have to do all that it says?
I intend to use the installupdate command.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance.
