- NeXT has completed an excellent job in seamlessly writing an application for
- upgrading systems from 2.1 to 3.0. Our office moved from a stand alone 2.1 cube
- to its own office lan with 3.0 machines running Oracle in less then 30 minutes.
- (This does not include the time required to upgrade the cube).
-
- Upgrading from 2.1 to 3.0 took about 20 minutes to configure and an additional
- 2-3 hours wait time for the upgrade. All system configurations are saved as
- well as a nice front end to make on the fly modifications before installation.
-
- If you were hesitant about upgrading for stability or configuration reasons, I
- suggest you go ahead and make the upgrade. I almost upgraded before backing up
- after performing an upgrade on another machine first. :-)
