OK, so I'm upgrading my final two master servers from 5.0 to 6.0.  

One of these machines has the following /opt/openv filesystem:
Filesystem                      kbytes          used    avail   capacity
Mounted on
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/openv        67184350        46684175        13781740
78%     /opt/openv

Now I backup the catalog to two locations, one is tape and the other is
disk, and that disk filesystem looks like:
Filesystem                              kbytes          used    avail
capacity        Mounted on
/dev/vx/dsk/nbu01/catbackupvol  66846432        43192770        16969019
72%     /catbackup

So from this you can see that the catalog is big and that the /opt/openv
isn't just full of logs, binaries, patches, etc.  So, my question is
will I run out of space during my upgrade from 5 to 6?  When netbackup
converts the catalog from the current format to the new format, will it
need temp space?  Will the upgrade blow up because I only have 13gig of
space left??

Thanks!
