Default Re: ClusterXL From win2003 to SPLAT

I actually tried the upgrade yesterday and so far it seems to work.

Im using the exact same hardware on the gateway, just used a new pair of disks to the RAID set and saved the old ones in case of failure of the upgrade.

1. Installed SPLAT with the exact same config as on win2003
2. Initiated SIC
3. Started HA on SPLAT
4. Installed policy
5. pushed license to SPLAT from Smartupdate.

This took about 40 mins and i had 0 downtime on the network.The Cluster works without any problems "so far" with win2003 on one GW and SPLAT on the other.
I will let this config run for a week and then upgrade the other GW to SPLAT.


VPN-1 Pro/Express, Cluster XL, HA New Mode

GW1: Win2003 NGX R60 hfa_01
GW2: SPLAT NGX R60 hfa_02
Smartcenter: Win2003 NGX R60 hfa_01

Hardware:
HP DL380 G4
Intel MT1000 Quad
