Solaris 7 & 9, Iplannet 4.1 and Sun One Web Server 6.1

Hey all,

I was wondering whether anyone could give me any tips. I'm a total newcomer when it comes to Solaris and i need to dothe following:

Current System:

Solaris 7 running IPlannet 4.1:

Upgrade (Preserving current data) to:

Solaris 9 running Sun ONE Web Server 6.1

Has anyone done anything like this before? Can you forsee any real problems with upgrading the systems? I'm a complete novice on solaris but i've done a little bit of research and it seems like it could be a fairly straight forward process - so long as i work out how to log into the system!! The main worry is upgrading the system and breaking it - then i'm in REAL trouble!!!!!!

I'd appreciate any info regarding past experiences, do's and do nots, or maybe some good resource links on the web???

Thanks for your time guys and gals!

NAME

       suninstall - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       suninstall

DESCRIPTION

       install-solaris(1M) is now the preferred command for starting and restarting the Solaris Installation program. It should be used instead of
       suninstall. suninstall is symbolically linked to install-solaris.

       suninstall is a forms-based and graphical subsystem for installing the operating system.

       suninstall exists only on the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should only be invoked from there. Refer to the Solaris 10 Instal-
       lation Guide: Basic Installations for more details.

       suninstall allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. suninstall loads the software available on the installa-
       tion media. Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for disk space requirements.

USAGE

       Refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide: Basic Installations for more information on the various menus and selections.
