Frank, I PM'd you with a really good overview doc. Not sure if we can post or not, so that's why I sent to you.

Hey TOrrentula..

I am sure you can post it

Alcatel was checking this forum, and saw that we could install the OS on VMWARE, and they though about the BiCS after !

Alrighty then. See attached. It was a little big so I archived.

Enjoy!
