Notes: 
 
Some of your special cron files may reference custom scripts. Be certain to 
include those custom scripts on any list of special cron files you want backed 
up. 
 
Call Cisco Services if you are unsure of what cron files you need to back up 
separately. 
 
Review all entries in the /etc/vfstab file and record any unique entries that you 
want to retain after the upgrade. 
Note:  The preUpgradeChecks script creates a copy of the vfstab file in the 
/dvs/admin/sysinfo/<date_time> directory. After the system is upgraded, you 
can use the entries you recorded or the saved vfstab file to add those unique 
entries back into the /etc/vfstab file. 
 
Review all entries in the /etc/dfs/dfstab file and record any unique entries that 
you want to retain after the upgrade, or copy the file to the 
/dvs/admin/sysinfo/<date_time> directory created by the preUpgradeChecks 
script. 
Note:  After the system is upgraded, you can use the entries you recorded or the 
saved dfstab file to add those unique entries back into the /etc/dfs/dfstab file. 
 
CAUTION: 
Several files are inadvertently not preserved in the default keyfiles list 
maintained on the DVD. You will need to add the files listed in the next bullet 
to your key files list when you are prompted during the Live Upgrade. You 
can also add them to your kfs.out file if you chose to create this. CR 
CSCzk46462 addresses this issue.
 
 
If you are using the loadPIMS or BOSS Web services, be certain that the 
/etc/opts/certs/ path is included in the keyfiles list for the SR 5.0 upgrade. 
 
Add the following files to your kfs.out file or to the key files list when prompted 
during the Live Upgrade.
