I found one brief discussion on the topic <br>> but it wasn't terribly detailed and was missing critical steps like <br>> configuration protection/retention. I'd like to preserve network and esp <br>> LDAP (client) settings as they were kind of a pain to establish in the <br>> first instance for quick reapplication. If anyone has or is interested <br>> in cobbling together a checklist of steps to upgrade OI to OmniOS that <br>> takes configuration into account, i'd very much appreciate seeing it.<br>> <br>> thank you<br>> <br>> - cal sawyer<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> OmniOS-discuss mailing list<br>> OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com<br>> http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss<br></div> </div></div> </div></body>
