I'm surprised that a test environment (for upgrade testing, load testing, release testing) isn't already in place. Some people (customers and operators alike) might think it is unprofessional and unsafe to run a production system without a test system available. If you have a test system available, why don't you use it? -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
