Hi all,

 
I've never done this before so I'd appreciate some guidance, I'm looking at
upgrading our Xymon test system from 4.3.4 to 4.3.17 on Centos 5.6. Is there
anything I need to worry about or should it be a straightforward process?

 
Thanks,

Neil.

I don't remember when this happened -- possibly when going from 4.2 to
4.3 -- but do you still have "bb-hosts" and friends or do you have the
new "hosts.cfg" and similarly named config files? That would be the only
thing to be concerned about. Even then it's a simple fix and no data is
lost.

Hosts.cfg and the like in 4.3.4. Sounds like this shouldn't be an issue then.
