I upgraded a f14 -> f16 yesterday. Not a single hitch (I was shocked!). I used the preupgrade tool.<br><br>You will be stopping EVERYTHING during the upgrades. Much of the JBoss stuff will likely break as the upgrade will be sure to upgrade the jboss stack which crosses at least one java version line.<br>
<br>HIGHLY recommend you do a dump of your data and a fresh install.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Dec 5, 2011 at 1:16 PM, Gene Poole <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gene.poole@macys.com">gene.poole@macys.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

KVM and move from Oracle 11gR2 database to PostgreSQL database.. To complicate
things more, I'm running Raid-1 on 2 - Hitachi Deskstar 1.5 TB drives with

<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">I've read that you can only migrate
a single version when using Anaconda (i.e. Fedora 13 --> Fedora 14 -->
Fedora 15 --> Fedora 16), so I can see the a full migration may take
about a week. At each stop, what should I verify to determine if
the upgrade went OK? Should I stop my Oracle, JBoss and other applications
prior to the upgrade?</font>
