Given a live server that runs many relatively uncommon
programs (for instance openACS) and which runs RH9.
How would you upgrade it with minimal downtime?
1) Is upgrading to Fedora advisable? It seems it'd
cause less headache, since configuration files are
equal, however it doesn't seem to be server-stable (at
least according to biased redhay[1])
2) How would you upgrade a live server hosted in the
USA? Would you install everything on a different
machine, making sure it works, then copy it somehow to
the server? Is upgrading using apt-get or similar
things advisable? Maybe there's risk of renderring the
machine unbootable, causing you big problems (as the
server is located in the USA).
I'll be glad for an advise.
