Hello,=20


I have an 7.4 system that I wish to update to 9.1 - It is a live mail =
server with couple of 100's persons on it.=20


This system is deployed on an Intel modular which allows me to connect =
any LUN to this device.=20
My idea was to create a new LUN and connect It to my system, then deploy =
the 9.1 version of the system on It, migrate the data on it and then =
reboot the system with everything updated, up and running=85=20

Is this feasible ?=20

How do I have to proceed to do this ? How do I specify the target for =
the system to be deployed on the other pool of disks not on the live =
system ?=20

When I reboot, how will I specify the new LUN as being the target system =
?=20

How do I recompile userland on the new system ? Is there a way to do =
that while running 7.4 (and specifying 9.1 binaries / architecture as =
target) ?=20


Do you think this is the right solution to update my system with a =
minimum downtime or would your rather suggest the more classical way of =
doing things ?=20



Thx.=20
