I really would have done the upgrade from V5R4 to 7.1 on a previous
weekend. There's only so much abuse a human body can take doing this all
in one weekend. And if you run into any issues doing it in one weekend,
ANY issues, then your window of recovery is so much less. Calling a CE
back in because, on your 3 rack system, he accidentally looped the third
rack back to itself can be rough. Hey, he was running on about 24 hours
straight. I knew better to give him any grief because I could tell he was
that close to quitting.
