After you are done with the upgrade you have one PTF to install. If you have dual ported disk drives be careful of the SWEEP option. It has a problem detecting if the drive is in use, and knocked both parts of a mirrored disk offline. The utility is used to create a small amount of activity on disk drives that have not been accessed for some time. The problem with the program is that it seems not to see that the drives that are on the other machine but have the dual port option attached. Anyway that is the only major problem (so far). Wayne J.
