Hello

Upgrading from comware 5 to comware 7 is not just installing a new software.

This documentation can be helpful:

Strange, it seems that OP double posted...see here (yet answered two weeks ago).

Check the version release notes too.  They usually have upgrade information on this as well.  This is a major upgrade.
