Hi TSMers

Next week I am going to upgrade our 4.2.2.12 TSM installation (running on
Solaris 2.7) to 5.1.6.2 (as I believe this is a good stable release to go
to).

Now, I understand that I'll have to uninstall the 4.2.2.12 install before
installing 5.1.0.0. I then thought that the 5.1.6.2 patch would just
install over the top, but from looking at the readme, it seems that I have
to uninstall 5.1.0.0 first, and then install 5.1.6.2. Is this correct?

Also, do the steps 4.2.2.12 > 5.1.0.0 > 5.1.6.2 sound correct or are there
other steps I should go to in between (or should I be aiming higher than
5.1.6.2)? I know that 5.2 is out of the question until I upgrade the server
from Solaris 2.7 to 2.8, so that's a no no for now.

I am also wondering if there are any people out there who know of any
specific patches that will be required to run 5.1 on Solaris 2.7. If so,
then I'd be very happy to know before doing the upgrade as sadly I don't
have another machine to test it on.

Anyway, any help very much appreciated.

Cheers
