Re: ISeries Upgrade

   Others have already answered your primary question regarding th= e
   compatibility, but don't forget that just because the server is upgraded    
does not require that you immediately (or ever!) upgrade the clients. = We
   upgraded our Domino 5.0.8 server to 6.0.x four months before we moved a   ny 
of the clients.  The only thing that anyone noticed was that the se   rver 
response time improved dramatically (your mileage may vary).
   <DIV= >
   Especially since you are looking at "simple mail and a co= uple of small
   applications," there's a very real chance that your upgrade w= ould be
   painless.  Ours was here, with a similar usage profile.  = One of our
   third-party applications had to be upgraded, but everything else= came
   over without a hitch.

   Good luck,

   Subject: ISeries Upgrade

   I am doing a side by side replacement of my iSeries.  I am presen= tly
   running OS/400 V4R5M0 and an instance of Domino V5R0M4.  I only us= e it
   for simple email and a couple of small applications.  It is worki= ng fine
   and meets my present needs.

   I intend to do a data swap betwe= en machines.  The new machine will have
   OS V5R3.  I would like to= do this without upgrading Domino (if it ain't
   broke, don't fix it).  = If I don't change anything as far as
   configuration, etc. is there any chanc= e my present Domino system will
   copy over and work as is on the new machine= ?  I do not have maintenance
   on Domino at present, so if it doesn't wo= rk, I will probably need to
   renew or something and then be forced to upgrad= e.

   Any help or comments would be appreciated.
