It very rarely causes problems, even when moving from 4.9 to 4.10, as I did with a bunch of servers recently - none were a problem. If there is an issue, you're no worse off than you would be if you had to get the data centre's technicians to work in the first place, provided you're prepared for such an eventuality. Peter.

Re: Making the World Remotely
I make install in multi user mode no problems :-) however I suggest you to switch off all services and turn them back on when you are ready :-) Peter - Original Message - From: James W.
