Hello List,

We are looking at updating our version 4.3 system to version 6.2.1 in order to expand 
our system to include the new CP60.  We currently use AW/WP51B's with Display Manager 
and the Legacy Historian.  Our CP's are fault tolerant CP40A's.  We have 5 nodes 
connected via Carrier Band LAN.  We can not shut down all nodes at once, since this 
system controls two 600 megawatt coal fired power generators.

Questions?

1. Do all of the nodes need to be converted at one time to 6.2.1 or can some nodes 
exist at 4.3  while part of the node is at 6.2.1?

2. Can we continue to use our Display Manager displays, or do we have to change to the 
Fox View displays?

3. Can we continue to use the Legacy Historian at version 6.2.1, or do we have to 
convert to the AIM historian?

4. Is there a different CP image at version 6.2.1 that requires a reboot of the CP for 
this upgrade?

Thanks for any guidance that you can give, as we are looking to see what windows of 
opportunity we have for doing this type of upgrade.
