9455.0. "Migration path OSF 4.0b?" by MSBCS::GRADY () Wed Apr 09 1997 17:02

    
    
    Hello,
    
    I have a customer that's at OSF 3.6F and want to upgrade to 4.0b
    
    what is the proper migration path to 4.0b?
    
    
    
    				Thanks in advance
    
                                   Dennis

Assuming you mean 3.2F, there are two paths:

3.2F -> 3.2G -> 4.0A -> 4.0B
3.2F -> 4.0 -> 4.0B

I think.  I'm not entirely sure about the first step on that second path.
I know that first path is legit.
