I've never moved UV from HP-Ux to Red Hat but I have worked on both. We went from a Sun Risc system to Red Hat on Intel and, like Drew said, you would have to do recompiling of programs and I-descriptors, and either uvbackup/uvrestore or fnuxi the files. If you use any operating system scripts or programs those will have to be checked for differences. The spooler should work pretty much the same. I did our conversion on a Saturday morning. Moving from a 'nix system to Windows was not as easy.

We are considering migrating from HP-Ux to RedHat. 1. How is RedHat? 2. Will I have to re-compile and re-catalog everything? 3. Did anyone migrate from HP-Ux to RedHat and then back to HP-Ux? 4. Is the RedHat Standard Edition Suitable? 5. Did anyone try running UV on RedHat on an HP Integritity (Itanium) server? 6. Are there any gotchas? 7. Insights and hind-sights would be appreciated. --Bill _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
