software and hardware changes that can potentially affect your system operations.</p>
|

</li>
|
|
<li>View the Migration Web site. <p>This Web site includes information about
|
|
the current migration and upgrade paths, a link to relevant Redbooks™,
|
|
and information about converting from SPD to PCI-attached I/O.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Review the <cite>Performance Capabilities Reference</cite> available on
|

about server performance that is useful for customers who plan to upgrade
|
|
their servers and software.</p>
