That's the point where MVCC is needed, at least for critical applications and large databases: each db has to be tested carefully on the new server before moving to production and downtimes have to be minmal. An single-version system cannot provide this. I'm doing this by assigning multiple sockets to the server (one per DB) and so migrating the DB's one by one w/o having to touch the clients. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
