Randy is correct. In most cases, the two protocols are running co-incident
for a while so you can do your table validation and topology mapping and
then you turn off OSPF. For vendors that aren't capable of supporting ISIS,
this is a feature and not a bug.

Randy is correct
But who'd follow his advice, he regularly encourages his competitors
to do stupid things.

Folks could, at least theoretically, use ISIS or OSPF multi instance/multi
topology extensions to support IPv4 and IPv6 topologies. This way they
would only need to run a single protocol and thereby requiring expertise in
handling only one protocol.
and, as is-is supports 4 and 6, why do you

When you might run OSPFv3 (for IPv6) and ISIS (IPv4) together because you
have equipment that is buggy for ISIS multi topology.

One scenario that i can think of when somebody might run the 2 protocols
ISIS and OSPF together for a brief period is when the admin is migrating
from one IGP to the other. This, i understand never happens in steady
state. The only time this can happen is if an AS gets merged into another
AS
Glen,
One transition scenario you noted below is often a use case. I have seen
networks move from OSPF to IS-IS (more cases then the reverse).
In those cases, the overlap period may not be very short (years vs.
weeks/months).
I have also seen some use one protocol (which I think was mentioned
