[Sunhelp] Upgrading to Solaris 7

[shivraj yadav]

I have recently upgraded my SS1000 from solaris 2.3 / oracle 7.1 to solaris 
2.6 / oracle 7.3. This server had x.25 s/w & other hsi & fddi card s/w. U 
could get info on the installed s/w by using "pkginfo' command. generally 
they will be installed in /opt dir. Maybe u could just go ahead & upgrade it 
after taking ufsdump off all the partitions. we did not face much problems 
after upgradation, only we had to reload the x.25 application s/w.
all the best....
