Thanks. I am more concerned about the system I want to install. Do I 
need to update either the AI server, or the SPARC AI image in order to 
install 111b? I would think not, and just want to confirm. (One of the 
reasons is that all the failures I and other have had with the 111a 
completely failing going to an old /release suggests there are some 
dependencies that are not completely obvious. I would have expected a 
failure early on in a version mis-match check, not an 'arbitrary' 
failure during the install).

I realize this is all new...

I take it that was for a complete update, not just AI! Looking lower, it 
seems 'yes'.

Thanks
Steffen
