I am going to be upgrading a F330 filer from Data Ontap version 3.14 to 5.2.2P1. I know the firmware needs to be upgraded to version 1.9_i, memory to 128mg, and the NVRAM to 2mg. From talking to Network Appliance technical support, they stated it should not be a problem as long as the system is booted from the 5.2.2P1 boot disks and "booted without rc". Once I am booted up with 5.2.2P1 and exported the proper permissions to mount the filer as root, I will then be able to untar the 5.2.2P1 image over to the F330 and run download. What I am trying to find out is if anyone else has done a big a jump from a 3.x version of Ontap to a 5.x version of Ontap and if there where any problems you encountered. Thank you, Mike Ball
