Hello, I have a customer who has been running ALL-IN-1 2.2 on VMS 5.1 for some time. They have now purchased a new system and want to move to VMS 5.5-1 and ALL-IN-1 3.0. The effort involved in upgrading seems huge. I have read various notes about transferring accounts between versions but none seemed to have as simple a configuration as in this case. The customer currently only uses the WP part of ALL-IN-1 (no EM, TM etc) and has only about 20 users. My question is Is it possible to build V3.0 on the new system, apply any customisations, create user accounts, add user profiles and then just bring back each users A1 directory? The only thing I had considered was that oafc$part_seed would need to be run for each user to put the old documents into the main drawer. Thanks for any input Regards Heather

Yes, it's possible. And with only 20 users it will probably take a lot
less work than applying all the upgrades...
Just thinking... will the internal SDAF changes (V2.3?) affect things..
or will ALL-IN-1's internal processing handle it? I think the latter
is correct, but await confirmation from someone who knows more about
it.

Hi, SDAF changes shouldn't matter, as if all documents are WP, there will be nothing in the shared areas. So the "empty" SDAF created by the V3.0 installation can be used. Scott | |||||
