2784.0. "Ultrix MIRs not compatable with T1.2.7" by RDGENG::PRATT () Fri Apr 17 1992 06:04

    Apologies if I've missed something, but I'm reading the release notes
    remotely on-line at the moment.
    
    Chapter 3.2 states that the Ultrix MIR format has been changed with
    T1.2.7 and that all the old MIRs must be deleted. This implies, but
    doesn't explicity state that I'm going to lose all of my data that I've
    currently got stored.
    
    Is this correct, or are there some conversion utilities provided?

    I believe that is correct. Since this is the first version of
    DECmcc Director for Ultrix there are risks in using intermeadiate
    baselevels (like any not yet released product). Certainly every
    attempt is made to avoid such things but changes to MIR formats
    had to be made.
    
    I don't know if the instance date extraction tool has been converted
    from DCL to a shell script yet. It is under way.
