Re: INFORMIX OnLine 7.x

5.02.UC6 is a no go on HP-UX...don't do it. There's a couple of similar threads on this same topic (one of which i replied in some detail to). 5.03.UC1 is ok (so far) for HP-UX...having said that, depending on your application you may not have anything to worry about by 5.02.UC6. cheers Mike SchuylerS@aol.com wrote: : A migration question. : Current H/W: Data-General Aviion 5200 : Current Online: 5.02.UC2 : New H/W: Hewlett-Packard 9000 E-55 (Dev) : 9000 G-70 (Prod) : 9000 H-70 (Prod) : New Online: 7.x. : We will be migrating from 'current' to 'new' in : approxomately 6-8 weeks. : We will be coming up on 5.02 initially in order to verify that there are : no pitfalls in HP-UX, then at some later date, our intention is to : install 7.x. : This was prior to more than a few caveats from the NET, including : the comment from hector@vrinet.com about receiving new releases : on a more-than-monthly basis.
