Who needs documentation when you have wikis that can be updated behind the scenes by conflicting groups of BMC staff with no communications to the customers?

After digging into it, 7.6.04 P5 contains the same upgrades in parallel with 8.1 P1. So we can upgrade from 7.6.04 P5 to 8.1 P1.

We are on 7.6.04 sp2. Is it best practice to go ahead and install the patches to sp5 (I believe) before the upgrade? Or just upgrade? _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ Private and confidential as detailed here: http://www.energytransfer.com/mail_disclaimer.aspx .
