For those of you who have been through a few major version changes, I'm interested to know if you have a preference for how you move your databases to the next version.
Do you just run the proutil conv(n)(n+1), or do you dump and load into a DB created with the new version?
Do you treat all DBs the same (prod/QA/dev/test/etc.), or do you do something different for production DBs?
Are there "gotchas" you've experienced in the past that I should be wary of? (Aside from the usual due caution; taking backups and so forth.)
Based on some brief testing it appears I do not have to run proutil updateschema and proutil updatevst after a conversion. Correct?
