[angelo23]

Hi All,

Im getting ready to attempt to do an upgrade from solaris 2.6 to solaris 9... Does anybody have any detail intructions to perform this upgrade... Looking for some line to line instructions... Also looking for some pre upgrade tips to be performed if any before I try to upgrade to solaris 9... I understand that I should comment out various filesystems in the vfstab if they are volume management filesystems..??

Thanks for any help or ideas...
Angelo
