I did an upgrade last night from ARServer 6.3 to 7.1 (patch 1). One problem I didn't anticipate was the 7.1 upgrade updates the User form and puts a unique index on the Login Name field. Unfortunately we had a few duplicates which I had to clean up. If you think you might have duplicate Login Names in the User form you should clean up the duplicates before performing the upgrade.
The second problem we had was syncing passwords between Mid-Tier and the ARServer. If you update the password on Mid-Tier for the particular ARServer you will need to recycle the servlet exec before the change will take affect. Likewise a change of the password on the ARServer side will require a restart in the service. Otherwise the upgrade went smooth. Also, I'm running all custom applications - nothing out of the box.

Hopefully that should be a pretty smooth upgrade. We’re going to give it a try tomorrow, so I’ll let you know how it goes!
