Re: Getting ready for 6.1.1 to 7.2 upgrade

[Tom <tomh@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Required PTFs for 7.1 - that's the page I'm now, reading it.

Also double-checking our hardware. We don't have anything unusual, just our disk
drives, a internal tape drive (5638-001), an internal optical drive (6331-004)
and LAN attached console (Operations Console 7.1)

Thanks,
TomH
