Migration Advise V7 to V8.1 or V8.2 ?
Given a V7 DB2 UDB appliaction on Unix, what is advisable when planning an upgrade?

i) Moving to latest DB2 UDB v8.2 - with latest fix pack ?
ii) Moving to DB2 UDB v8.1 - with most stable fix pack ?

TIA

FP10 (8.2.3) is more stable than the last 8.1 fixpack (FP6x). FP 11 will be available in January, and I would recommend that if it is available when you migrate.
