clusters that are running BCC 1.1 SP1 for NetWare 6.5 SP6 (same as OES 1 SP2
NetWare) or from clusters running BCC 1.0 (which is available on NetWare only).
BCC 1.2 for OES 2 SP1 Linux supports conversion from BCC 1.1 SP2 on NetWare. In order to
convert BCC clusters from NetWare to Linux clusters, you must first upgrade existing BCC 1.0 or
BCC 1.1 SP1 for NetWare clusters to BCC 1.1 SP2 for NetWare. For information about converting
to BCC 1.2 for Linux, see “
Converting BCC Clusters from NetWare to Linux
” in the
