I'm preparing for production i5OS upgrade, V6R1M1 to V7R1.
Estimated down window is currently about 6 to 7 hours.
Dedicated save before 2.5
OS upgrade and post upgrade configs 1 to 2 hours
Dedicated save after 2.5.

I did a BRMS test save, using 4 devices instead of 1.
Reduced the save window to 55 minutes.
This will shrink by down window to 3 -4 hours, much more acceptable.

However, I know the BRMS recovery, if needed, will be more complicated because of the parallel save.
Did anyone ever do a parallel recovery from a parallel save?

Thank You
