I mean, if you set up a new cluster, use 8.0.x. if you think you want the new features, sure, go ahead with the upgrade. but upgrading a known good HA platform just because there is a new version with new features you don't need... I think thats not how HA works. ;) -- : Lars Ellenberg Tel +43-1-8178292-0 : : LINBIT Information Technologies GmbH Fax +43-1-8178292-82 : : Vivenotgasse 48, A-1120 Vienna/Europe http://www.linbit.com : __ please use the "List-Reply" function of your email client.
