2857.0. "Migration path from DmQ 2.0?" by DECSNA::SYSTEM (Pierre-Erik ALBAT -Tech.Group-France) Tue Apr 22 1997 14:11

    Hi all,
    
    Assuming I have a customer in AXP-VMS 2.0-C who want (at least!)
    to upgrade to latest version (around 20 sites): what is 
    the shortest/best path you would take ? Something as:
    2 -> 3.0 -> 3.2 -> 3.2 B ?
    
    Assuming now, he want to switch from DECnet (ph.IV) to TCP/IP links, do you
    think it's better switching after upgrade or before ?
    
    Thanks in anticipation for any advise/comment,
    Pier-Erik

2857.1Go directly to V3.2B...KLOVIA::MICHELSENBEA/DEC MessageQ EngineeringTue Apr 22 1997 14:269
  The V3.2B kit still has the migration tools to convert from V2.x to
V3.x along with number of bug fixes in this area.

  As to going from DECnet to TCP, I would wait until after the upgrade
because of the corrections to the TCP link drivers in V3.2B especially
if they will connecting to non-VMS systems.
