Changing from 5.0 to 5.1

[rsebasti]

One 5.0 tree with multiple servers across different states

Intend to change entire system to 5.1 - where do I start?

Does anyone have a procedure or documentation?

Is this going to hurt?

Main goal to change or uprade servers from 5.0 to 5.1.

My question is why would you go to so much effort for such a minor upgrade. if you're going to upgrade, go to 6.5.

Either way, i don't consider it painful as long as you plan and take the appropriate precautions, make sure NDS is healthy, etc.

Company intends to upgrade to 5.1 only - our license covers the upgrade but not to any other version.

Question still remains: procedure/documentation or url for transition please....
