Hi guys,
we are running V5.2 on OS/390 and on AIX but we don't use yet the clustering option
We decided to go to 5.3 and also use clustering during 2003. Can anyone suggest what to do first and why. Upgarde first or clsuter first?
It may be that I cannot go to 5.3 on OS/390 (not under my control) but still go to 5.3 on AIX and cluster all.
What should I do first, what should I look out for, what should I avoid ...
I am most greatfull for any ideas.

I would recommend the upgrade first. My contacts at IBM said that one of the major pushes for v5.3 (other than SSL) was to increase the robustness of clustering. From what I hear it's gotten much better, though I haven't been able to test v5.3 in the type of large enterprise environments I've worked with v5.2. _________________ Brandon Duncan
