Upgrade from 5.4.3 to the latest version on a DL with two core servers

Like many others I'm going to need to upgrade from 5.4.3 to the latest version sometime in the next few months.  We run two DL4000 with replication between the two.  How do I go about it?  I've read the how to upgrade from 5.4.x to 6.x doc so as I understand it I do the target box first?  So do I do all the steps in the "upgrading cores" section of the Doc on the target then run the RUU and then do the same thing and run the 6.1.2 updater?  Then once that is done repeat on the source core?  I could do with it not going wrong as our target core is at a site about 300 miles away!

  • Not sure what you mean by a new kit. I assume that you meant new DL appliances. The answer is that in most cases it takes too long to copy a repository from one machine to another. The best solution is to move the repository via local replication. It is a simple operation which goes at its own pace and allows moving recovery points in an organized manner. Please open a service ticket (or give us a shout) when the time comes and we will help you out!
