AIX itself was straight forward. I tried both a migration and a clean
install.
The only gotcha I got was applying ML02. It didn't work from the download
site, so IBM sent me it on CDs (took 2 CDs for the 800MB fixes).

Your database, and other 3rd party software may require re-installation or a
new version.

Subject: AIX 4.x to AIX 5.1L

Folks,

Another upgrade question.

Anyone have any experiences upgrading from AIX 4.3.3 to AIX 5.1L?

According to the documentation, all that is needed:

Save all user configurable files.

Boot from CDROM and do a "migration".

Merge all new changes into the existing files.

This sounds a little too "simple".....

Anyone have any input such as gotchas, files, etc.

Thanks!

DaveZ
