I spent most of last year y2k testing Solaris (2.5.1 & 2.6) and AIX (4.2.1 = & 4.3). This was Unix only - not Informix. We were jumping the boxes all = over the place to run the tests without any problems, most of the tests = where fully automated with scripts controlling the date adjustments. = Once the tests were complete we just moved the date back to current - no = hassles. The only special on the test environment was we were on our own = dedicated 192.168.x.x network for obvious reason. Also it was decided not = to test ntp BTW the tests included HA rollover and takeover for both Sun and IBM Paul Watson WF Software Ltd Tel +44 1436 674729 Fax +44 1436 678729 www.wfsoftware.co.uk ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
