Re: V4R4 to V5R1 upgrade [was Re: Off-topic, and not sorry one iota]

Good explanation.  But there is always that possibility that "happy 
everything's working okay at V5R1" might turn out to be  "What, more ptfs! 
 Let's just upgrade to V5R2 and those ptf's."

I don't know about Jan, but V4R4 can only go to max V5R1. You can't do a
V4R4 to V5R2 in one upgrade. We've our development box to go to V5R1
next weekend, and our production box at Easter. I then want to get both
boxes to V5R2 as soon as we're happy everything's working okay at V5R1.
