There have been a couple of reports of the jabber password not
persisting across upgrades from 0.6 to 0.7. It looks like the
preserving of these values is done through rhn-load-config.pl, yet we
don't ever recommend running this during the upgrade. As a result
jabber refuses connection to osa-dispatcher and push doesn't work until
/var/lib/jabber is cleared.
Is there any reason not to run it during the upgrade process?
The config in question is osa-dispatcher.jabber_password in
/etc/rhn/rhn.conf

if /var/lib/jabberd/ is where we store the authdb files, then deleting
them as part of an upgrade should work fine. We today remove them I
think on rpm upgrade and within the init scripts. This was implemented a
few years ago while trying to resolve multiple corruption issues and
that doing this hurt nothing, but would resolve issues where the db
files got messed up for reasons unknown. I don't think the corruption
happens anymore, if it does, no one seems to notice/complain anyhow.
