We've been running 3.7.4 on Solaris for about a month without noticeable
problems;  so, we upgraded an AIX box from 3.7.3 to it this past Tuesday,,,
all is going well, so I am now preparing to do it on Win2k server.  We need
the fixes for expiration and server crashes we were getting on 3.7.3.

I wonder if things went awry because he tried to start the server without
doing upgradedb at the outset!?!  (Sometimes they forget to test the obvious
human-error scenarios.)  To confirm that, just restore back to the original
level, re-run smitty to redo the upgrade, but remember to do the upgradedb
1st thing after install.

Shekhar,

So from your email we can see that the 3.7.4.0 servers are out.  Hopefully
your upgrade problem isn't an indication of the reliability of the new
code.  I think I'll take a wait-and-see attitude.
