Many thanks for your great advice! I truly appreciate it.
..
One thing I would value your response to the following potential question which I may be asked:
- The process of upgrading from 7.1.1 to 7.1.4 is well documented
- Many companies across the world would have followed this process
- And presumably their data file systems did not get over-written or recreated (albeit they probably had a backup!)
- Why do you think that this is such high-risk in this case?
Not that I doubt your advice but just that I will most probably get asked this question by my client when I ask them to acquire a new disk
