We need to upgrade from 7.2-1 to 7.3-2. I have the Alpha update kit with all the CDs for OVMS 7.3.
We are doing a complete initialization and new install.
Can we install 7.3 from the CD's and upgrade to 7.3-2 or do we need a whole new set of CDs?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionIf you want to preserve user account, system and networking configuration the best option is to upgrade. If you want to configure a new "known baseline" environment the clean install option is a better choice.

Re: Upgrading Alpha 7.2-1H1 to 7.3-2
Since all we have is the 7.3 CDs, do I need a separate set of CDs to upgrade that to 7.3-2 afterwards, or can I download a patch that will take me to 7.3-2 from 7.3?
Thanks again

Re: Upgrading Alpha 7.2-1H1 to 7.3-2
There are some very nice features that start to show up since 7.2-1h1. XFC, the improved TCPIP, LAN failover, RMS improvements and the dedicated lock manager for SMP systems. You should review the release notes for 7.3, 7.3-1 and 7.3-2 and decide what may be useful to your system. See http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/ for online access to the doc sets.

Re: Upgrading Alpha 7.2-1H1 to 7.3-2
you can upgrade from 7.2-1H1 to 7.3 or if you have 7.3-2 seperate media and Lic, you can upgrade to 7.3-2.
To upgrade/install to 7.3-2, we need seperate license and media. Using 7.3 media and lic, we can not go 7.3-2.
Upgrade Paths to Version 7.3-2:
You can upgrade directly to OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.3-2 from only the following
versions of OpenVMS Alpha:
Version 7.3-1
Version 7.3
Version 7.2-2
Version 7.2-1
Version 7.2-1H1
Version 7.2

Re: Upgrading Alpha 7.2-1H1 to 7.3-2
following the same principle, but different paths, we went from 7.2-1 to 7.3-1 by rolling upgrade, and (some time later) from there to 7.3-2. But also two rounds.
Please also download the 7.3-2 ECO kits and install them straight away!
(quite a few exist now, but _MOST_ are bundled in UPDATE kits). Scan trough the included content listings to sort 'm out.
Some are nasty-bug repairs (you SURELY want them!) but most are pretty nice goodies. (just think of the various DCL enhancements)
All in all they are all pretty straightforward, and troublefree (exept for the COPY that is included in UPDATE (3?).
It gives a DCL syntax error at the next patch in the kit. Do NOT undo, simly log off, log on again (or SET COMMAND DCLTABLES) and re-apply the kit. A bit ugly, but fully correct.
Success.
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Upgrading Alpha 7.2-1H1 to 7.3-2
we never had to re-COMPILE, but we had one applic (Pascal, version unknown; linked on V6.1) that had to be re-LINKed going from 7.2-1 to 7.3-1, and another one, (Pascal also, linked on V6.2) that needed re-LINK going from 7.3-1 to 7.3-2
Furthermore we had to dig quite deep into the SYBASE Omniconnect startup to locate the actual RUN command which specifies the quota.
BYTLM and PGFLQUO had to be raised.
