Re: Electronic Software Delivery

Remember that the download is done COMPLETELY prior to the upgrade. No files are downloaded DURING the upgrade. Therefore the other suggestions of getting the files on a faster link and then bringing them to the customer is the correct answer.

The basic set of V7R1 media is roughly 16GB.

I would like to hear comments(good or bad) and what has
been your experience with slower DSL lines doing this type
of upgrade.

The customer in question only has a very slow "standard DSL line"
and that could mean VERY long downloads with lots of files.

I assume V7R1 has some pretty big files.

Is it really a time saver or is this just another upgrade using a
different media ?
