>Is VMS 5.0 rolling upgrade or a new installation? That is, do we have >to reformat the system disk when installing VMS 5.0? V5.0 in an upgrade. In fact, it is possible to do a rolling upgrade of a cluster where some nodes run 4.7 and others V5. (No, this does not means DEC supports mixed cluster versions. This is supported ONLY for rolling upgrade. But it should work if you want to do it.) The upgrade requires that the system be running at least VMS V4.6. R.
