For windows clients/servers the setup will uninstall/update in a single step. 
For unix, you will do the standard, shutdown legato, uninstall previous 
version, and install new version.

Obviously, after shutting down the legato server, doing a tar backup copy of 
/nsr is a good idea if you have the room somewhere for another copy of the 
index databases.

A (very) good point. The more I consider, the more I feel I should do the 
same. The upgrade process itself should be the same, I'm guessing, as 
upgrading to 7.5. (i.e., uninstall old version, keep NMC database, install 
new version). Or can I just install 7.4.5 directly over top of my 7.4.2, 
without uninstalling first? I refer to my server and (in my case) half a 
dozen storage nodes, which all must be done at the same time.
