Hi all,

I am new to the list and I am getting ready to upgrade one of our production
NT boxes to UDB/NT V7.1 over the next few weeks (currently at V5.0).  I am
developing what the 'fallback' plan is, if for any reason I need to
backpedal to the previous version (V5.0).  I would be interested in ideas
folks have on what they have done or plan to do for fallback.

My current thoughts are:

Prior to upgrading:             Flush all transactions
                                Shutdown databases
                                Take Database backups
                                Shutdown DB2 services
                                Take NT Server backup to Tape

If backout needed :             Recover server from tape
                                Start DB2 Services
                                Start Databases 
                                Test Run Applications confirming fallback  

Thanks -- rd
