Title: Can´t get blade list
Post by: Bob on September 19, 2003, 05:54:48 AM

Hi.Am am a real newbie and I am running an SME server v 5.0 connected to an ADSL link with dyndns.org dynamic IP service. I need to upgrade to v 5.6 and I can´t get the blades from the link at the server-manager menu ( Blades ). It comes with an error or simply does not find a Blade server. I have never payed for SME services. How can I get this upgrade.

Thank you in advance

To upgrade to 5.6 you need to download the 5.6 ISO from one of the mirror sites, burn CD, then boot from CD and install 5.6.  Choose either to upgrade or install new and restore from your last backup.  Also download the latest update which I believe is 4.  Install that and you should be in business.  The blades option is no longer available for the unsupported version.

Good Luck,

JB

...and even if blades were still available on the unsupported version, they were never a means of handling version upgrades.  JB's right, download the CD and install from there.
