10.20

I upraded an old T600 fro 10 to 11. I am getting ready to remove all 10.20 software from this system. Do you think this is a wise idea? Can I safely remove all references to 10.20?

Re: 10.20


Robert,

It would depend on what kind of software. A lot of 10.20 code runs fine on 11/11i machines.

Can you specify some of the things you would remove?

Re: 10.20

It is always a good practice to take a full backup and save before an upgrade. As long as your apps will run on the new OS you should be fine.

Re: 10.20

Hi Robert:

Use a current version of 'cleanup' (PHCO_24347 for 11.0 or PHCO_24630 for 11.11) and do:

# cleanup -i

...to remove remnants of 10.20 fro your IPD.

Regards!

Re: 10.20

If you are talking about some OS related softwares, then you can remove it and install the 11.0 versions. The applications which works on both versions can be either re-installed or kept same.

Re: 10.20

Yes you can, I'm assuming your talking about application software which are originally loaded from the application CDs. A side note :- Be very careful with patches though, there should be instruction on how to handle that, I think using "swmodify" and then "cleanup".
