I know this is an off the wall question and a lot of factors weigh into
this, but thought someone may have a ballpark idea. We need to plan
upgrading from V4R5 to V5R1. How long should we expect this to take,
"assuming all goes well"? If we can not take our system down until 6pm on a
Saturday, when can we hope to be finished - Sunday sometime or would it take
longer? Basically looking at whether we can do it during a "normal" weekend
or whether it should be an extended one. We are on an 820.
Thanks.
Dave
