Has anyone upgraded 10.4 to 10.4 Server Unlimited ??

[djbeta]

Hi there,

I have a machine I am considering upgrading to 10.4 Server unlimited.

Because of custom web, PHP 5, Zend Optimizer, MySQL applications, and currently working PHP/MySQL installations, I'd rather not do a fresh install of 10.4 Server and then be forced to re-configure everything. I'm not in a position to have the machine be inactive for even a short period of time.

My question is.. has anyone any experience with installing the 10.4 Server unlimited components OVER 10.4 standard version ?

I'm wondering how it's done, how easy/hard it is, and possible pitfalls..

thanks.

I have not done this, but from what I've found on Apple, it looks like the only system that supports this is the intel-based macs, because intel tiger disks have not been released. Then again, I could be wrong. If you can't afford much downtime, you could setup OS X server on an external firewire drive, then use Carbon Copy Cloner or some other cloning program to transfer the server install when you have finished setup.
