I would stop all, just to make sure although I think you only need to stop #1 & 
#4

You don't have to run any of the commands before the upgrade. The reason to run 
them is that if you have a corrupt index, doing an upgrade is a bad idea. The 
nsrim and nsrck -m check the media database, and the nsrck -L6 does the client 
index. If you can copy the entire NSR directory to somewhere else, it's less of 
an issue and you could probably get away with a "nsrck -L5" or even "nsrck -L4"

Hi,

These are the services associated with the networker 

                     SERVICE                                                  
STATUS

[1] N/W backup & recover server                                     Started

[2] Networker host agent                                                 Stopped

[3] N/W power monitor                                                    Started

[4] N/W remote exec. service                                           Started

#3 and # 4 also run on storage nodes and clients.

Questions :

Do i have to stop all these services on all the networker components ?

N/W server is a Windows 2003 x86 server.  Do i  have to run all three commands 
for the consistency check ?

Thanks
