Hi All,
   
  Please comment on the following scenario:
   
  I have a Provider-1 NG Feature Pack 3 with HFA 318 infrastructure running on 
Solaris 9.  I have a Primary and Secondary Manager.  I also have four different
MDS Containers.  I have a total of about 250 CMAs spreading out among the 
four MDS Containers.
   
  I would like to upgrade the MDS infrastructure from HFA_318 to HFA_327.
The problem is that on about 200 CMAs, we have made a lot of changes in
the user.def, base.def, etc... Furthermore, we've also made lot of changes
with dbedit and/or gui-dbedit with these CMAs.  If I am not mistaken,
when upgrading from HFA_318 to HFA_327, a lot of these settings will be 
overwritten by the HFA.  If that is true, then I will be in big trouble.
  Is there a way to upgrade my MDS infrastructure from HFA_318 to HFA_325
without losing the settings for each of my CMAs?  I don't know if I can
back up ALL 250 CMAs individual settings.  Furthermore, how can I verify
that ALL of my settings remain after the HFA upgrade?  In other words, is there
  a safe way to do this?
   
  TIA
