I decided to try it too. So far no problems with all of the following being
upgraded as of 5:50AM. I still have about 6 more boxes to upgrade before I
go home for a nap.
Qty Model Upgraded from ComOS
6 PM2eR 3.5.1b17
3 PM2e 3.5.1b17
1 PM2I 3.5.1b17
1 PM2Ie 3.5
3 OR-U 3.5.1b17
6 OR-U 3.5
4 PM3-2PRI 3.5.1b20
4 IRX111 3.5.1b20
3 IRX114 3.5.1b20
Correction.... I was using two Windows machines and two Solaris machines
and the Solaris pminstall locked up upgrading one of the IRX111s. I killed
the process and reinstalled using the Windows box and everything seems to
be fine. I also experienced a strange problem where I could telnet and
connect to one of my IRX114s but nothing would come up on the screen. I
reinstalled 3.7 using one of the NT machines and rebooted. That seemed to
fix the problem. I'm not sure if there is a problem with the IRX installer
code under Solaris 2.5.1, I'm using:

bash-2.00$ cd pm
bash-2.00$ pminstall -v
./sun4_5.5/pm_install Version 3.5.3
bash-2.00$
On the NT machine, I'm using 3.5.1.4 w/o any problems. I think it may be a
machine specific problem since it only happened on this one machine, but I
thought I should mention it anyway.
As a sidenote, I ordered a STAC card from MSI yesterday. I hope to pick it
up and begin testing later today. I'll post the performance results here.
If anyone else has interest in LE releasing STAC for the PM2 on a limited
number of ports, please let them know @ support@livingston.com with
RFE:STAC in the subject. Howard and I can't be the only ones. :)
