I have read the documentation and several blogs on how to do Live Upgrade.  Can 
you please help me understand these issues?  I am trying to upgrade from NV78 
to NV108.

1) All the documentation says that I need to patch my system prior to running 
the live upgrade.  Does this apply to SNV as well?  I started by trying to 
patch the patch packages, but it complained that the packages on my system were 
not compatible with the ones in the patch.  I downloaded the patches from 
sunsolve, but I don't know if they are applicable to SNV.

2) I tried running Update Center.  It prompted me for registration. Do I need a 
Service Plan Number in order to run Update Center? Anyway, it failed with a 
message about "Error in SCN/Cacao Update License".  What does this mean?

3) I guess I can try running the Live Upgrade commands without patching the 
system, but is this the recommended approach?  I don't want to hose this server.

Thanks,
Jim
