In September 2010, HP released the following bulletin:
Subject: End of Support Life for “Apache version 2.0 along with WSS version 2.x” on 11iv2 and 11iv3.
Reference:

I have some questions about this migration:
(1) Does anyone know where I can obtain more information about this? Release notes, readme first docs, technical contacts, etc
(2) We have unix servers that are running the old legacy Apache web server which need the upgrade. I do not yet know how this is supposed to work. Specifically, will upgrading from legacy to the new version
"pull over" the legacy configuration files, binaries, etc, or is the "upgrade" a completely brand new install which will blow away the existing legacy version?
(3) How will I test (post-installation) the new upgrade to make sure everything actually works like it is supposed to work? I know this testing will involve verifying to make sure that the web content is still accessible, but are there any other tests which should be ran?
(4) What about any new configurations fies, new features, updated features, etc? Also, will the new version cofiguration files overwrite the legacy configuration files, requiring me to re-examine the configuration files?
Any and all constructive comments will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Rob Sandifer
