Looking for any and all advice or caveats relative to the following
scenario:

We have a HIGHLY CUSTOMIZED Netview 6.0.3 installation on a Solaris 2.6 box
which we want to migrate to a Solaris 8 box so that we can get up to 7.1.3.

Our UNIX support people are EXTREMELY reluctant to upgrade the current 2.6
box to 2.8 because in their words, 'it almost never works'.  And I think
they're right.  They would want us to scratch and install Solaris 8 on the
current box and then rebuild our NV environment from the ground up.
Something WE don't want to do.

Is this as simple as porting the /opt/OV stuff from the old box to the new
box and then running a v6.x install on the new box?  If not, I am open to
all suggestions.

Thanks.
