Procedure for Upgrading Kernel of 700

[Former Member]

Hi,

I would like to know the if procedure for upgrading the kernel of release 700 is same as upgrading other release like 640. I have upgraded the kernel release 620 and 640.

Just want to know if any extras steps have to be followed for upgradation of 700. OS is windows 2003 with oracle database.

Also, I have a query that can we upgrade a kernel from 640 to 700 directly by overwriting the kernel of 700 over 640 or not. If not please let me how can I upgrade from 640 to 700.

Waiting for some nice replies....Thanks all in advance.
