Hello

Just attempted first upgrade using qtp-newmodel and got the following:

---
qtp-newmodel v0.2.11 starting Thu Feb 21 22:30:50 GMT 2008
qtp-whatami v0.2.5
DISTRO=CentOS
OSVER=4.5
QTARCH=i686
BUILD_DIST=cnt40
BUILD_DIR=/usr/src/redhat
This machine's OS is supported, but this version/arch has not been
tested.

If your OS is not current, you should consider upgrading it.
Do you want to proceed at your own risk? (yes, no) y/[n] :

Just wondered if anyone else has attempted the same and what results
they had?

TIA and regards
Kevin


I encountered that and I think it is harmless, but of course you should
always back up before and upgrade. Good luck.


I should probably change that message soon. It's a general disclaimer of
sorts. CentOS4 is probably the most often used platform. It's very safe to
run qtp-newmodel on that OS/Ver.

Note that there might be a few stumbling blocks along the way, but rest
assured that your toaster will keep running in its present form while the
new rpms are built. qtp-nemodel is as safe as safe can be at this point,
especially on COS4.

Many thanks to both of you for that. Will give it another go, once I've
completed a backup :-)

Quick update.

Had to make a few attempts, a couple of perl entries were out of date. Attempting to re-use the sandbox didn't seem to work, so kept on creating new sandboxes. However, that ended up being the biggest problem as qtp-umount-sandbox was unable to unmount the sandbox - still is use. fuser didn't reveal anything, so ended up rebooting each time I corrected anything. Even after the upgrade was complete and I said yes to remove the sandbox, it still failed.

On last question for next time. During the upgrade I was asked if I wanted to backup and then restore. The default was not to restore, any particular reason for this? I did, and all seems to be working OK.

TIA and regards
Kevin
