Xe Upgrade on 2nd box

Mike,

I'm planning on creating a seperate network and installing a new deployment
server and enterprise server on that network. The deployment server and
enterprise server will keep the same names as the old ones. The new
deployment server would be upgraded to Xe on the new network. I'd like to do
a save/restore from the 170 (V4R5) to the 270 (V5R1) and then upgrade the
270 to Xe. This way we could run PROD on B733.1 on the 170 and PY on the 270
for a 2 week testing period. For go-live I would copy the PROD libraries
from the 170 to the 270 and then run the table conversions. I'd then power
off the old deployment server and enterprise server and change the IP
address of the new server to the proper network. I'm just wondering if this
would work and if anyone's done anything like this (I'm sure someone has)
and if anyone has any hints, suggestions or documents that might be useful.
Also is there an easier/better way I'd sure appreciate the suggestions.

Thanks


Colin
