Hello all once again,
I have a server that is running 5.1 and we are considering upgrading to Novell 6 to keep up with our other serves. Now I have built a server from scratch, but have never done a upgrade. HELP!! What do I need to be carefull of? What will not work on the server after the upgrade?
It is a 5.1 server with sp3 or 4 i believe. Also it is running nprinter. Now from what I have read in some areas INCLUDING Novell that NPrinter is not available. You can try it but it is possible that it will not work.
The server also has traditional drives and not NSS. What will happen here? To many questions.....
Well I may leave it just becuase there should be a new school come next year and thus we can get a new server, or if someone can help and point me in how to do it properly without blowing it up let me know. I have not just one but two backups of the drives. One set is the original drives the set I am working on is a imaged set that replaced the old drives and a set that is off site at the comapny that imaged the drives for me in case something horrible goes wrong.
Well any help would be good or some kind of info on what I need to pay particular attention to when upgrading. I await your responses and help.
Thanks
