Greetings all,

We are planning to move our NetView (currently v7.1.2 on AIX 4.3.3, ml10) to a new server. The current server can't support AIX 5.x.

The new server will be Solaris 2.8. I would like to upgrade NetView to v7.1.4 at the same time. I have a case open with support for help/advice but would like to get this group's help/advice as well.

Q1 - Has anyone ever (successfully) migrated their databases from AIX to Solaris? We have a lot of ipmap customizing that I would like to keep in tact if possible.

Q2 - Would location.conf be any help if new discovery is required? I can't find any doc on how to create a location.conf of my current ipmap short of the tool some people call "vi" (I call it lots of other things whenever I have to use it).

Q3 - I could upgrade to v7.1.3 plus fixpack vice v7.1.4 plus fixpack. Any reason to NOT go with v7.1.4 on Solaris?

Thanks in advance for any and all comments, Tom G.
