All,
We're in the process of replacing all of our servers. At the same time, we will be moving to SQL Server 2005 and to ARS V7-this will be on Windows Server 2003. I'm looking for recommendations from those of you who have actually performed these upgrades. Please, don't be shy! Have any of you upgraded from v6.3 directly to v7.1 on Windows 2003 and are there any known issues? Our main OTB application is CSS 5x and we have a lot of locally-developed applications. We are not using ITSM or CMDB. With the reported issues some of you have been having, I'm looking for a stable 7.0.1 patch level or preferably, being able to move to 7.1 directly. The most direct route appears to be installing v6.3 on the new servers in SQL 2005, import the database, and then run the upgrade. I'd prefer to install a clean v7.1 on a clean SQL 2005 and move everything over via Migrator or export/import but that is going to be a lot work with over 425,000 issues, etc. Anyone have any experience doing this and how long did it take?
