Dear Teresa,

Just install same nsr version on both servers, and then copy the nsr tree 
(index/mm/res) from
the old to the new one.

Restart then on the old and let prod running on.

Pull the new out of the lan. Bring it up and test the upgrade. Check if all is 
ok.

Do not forget this: Look then at new hostid. It will change due to hw
platform change. Let's have the lics authorized with the new hostid.
Once you received the lics, then fill them in to check.
If all is ok, then you are ready for live step !

After final upgrade, just fill new auth codes to have lics
fully authenticated.

Objet : [Networker] Upgrading to 7.6.4.3 - general question

Hi everyone,

Soon we will be upgrading our server and storage node from v7.6.1.6 to 
v7.6.4.3.  Is there anything unexpected we should be aware of?  Any known bugs?

Also, we're transitioning to new hardware during the upgrade.  We'll be keeping 
the same hostnames and IPs to make things a bit easier.  I'd appreciate any 
bits of wisdom for this change too.

I'm making my way through all the documentation (and the procedure generator 
steps), but this group is often a lot more informative :)

Thanks.
Teresa
