uninstall first?

I'm preparing to install the lastest Online Diagnostics on my server running HPUX lli. Should I uninstall the current version prior to installing the lastest version? Does it matter?

Hi Eric:

There is no need to uninstall ('swremove') first. Simply 'swinstall' the latest bundle.

Re: uninstall first?

If you configure custom settings you will loose them if you uninstall the diags.
You should always install the new version without uninstalling the previous.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.
