All,
I plan to upgrade 6 F330 to 5.2.1, in order to be y2000 compliant. According to the documentation in need first to upgrade the firmware to 1.9_i . Current version of firmware are: 1.6_i or older. Current version of OS are: 4.0.1c, 4.3.4, 4.3.5.
Is anybody aware of problems , or traps i need to take care with this new version.
Thanks,
I will just suggest you make sure that all clients mounting the filer running 4.0.1c are unmounted before you proceed to upgrade. Otherwise after the upgrade you will have stale NFS file errors on all your clients and you will need to reboot all clients to fix it. The 4.0.1c had NFS over TCP on by default.

Ibrahima, You are right, since i can't stop all clients , i will force UDP in the automount tables, and wait for all client to mount in UDP mode. Thanks for the warning.
Regards, Pierre.
