I have two NFS-servers, one running 5.2-current from Feb 18 2004 and the other 5.3 beta 3. They are both equipped with a qlogic 2310 hba, and one with a aic7899 adapter, PIII at 1 GHz (DL380 G2). They are serving 8 webservers. Both are very stable. I'll have some downtime next week and 5.4 won't be ready by then, but will the upgrade to 5.4 be easier doing an incremental 5.3->5.4-upgrade, or should I just go straight to 5.4 (and wait some weeks)? Does the qlogic card no longer require both device isp device ispfw but only device isp in either 5.3 or 5.4? regards Claus
