Hi Folks,
Last week I updated my three nearstore units to 6.5.2 after experiencing a shelf-hang issue on two of them. That got me to thinking about updating another system (a F840 running 6.1R1 - it's been up forever, about 420 days) since it's running such an old version of OnTap and some of the clients here in the office are migrating to to XP-SP2.
Anyhow - looking on the NOW site I noticed there are a few critical bugs in 6.5.2 which are supposed to be fixed in 6.5.2R1 - which doesn't exist yet. 6.5.2P6 does exist, however, so I was curious if I should wait until P6 becomes R1 before upgrading? I hate to rock the boat on a system which has been up and stable for a year and a half, but with XP-SP2 clients coming online I'm sure there's going to be some issues come up with the old 6.1 version its running.
Also I was curious if I should also re-update the 6.5.2 systems I have to R1 when it comes out just to be sure that I'm not going to hit any of the known issues in 6.5.2 on them.
Is anyone running 6.5.2P6 here on the list or have any comments about the actual critical-ness of those bugs in 6.5.2 which have been fixed in P6 (or R1 when it becomes available) - or know when 6.5.2R1 might hit the streets? The NOW site says 'this week' but I'm not sure when the document was authored... Just curious what the general consensus was on 6.5.2/6.5.2R1 etc.
Cheers, Simon.
