Hi,
  You did not mention the type of installation you have, i.e. standalone or
  distribution.  
   
  1) if you have standalone, I would advise using the upgrade_export and 
  upgrade_import tool.  That way, you can have a "fresh" install of IPSO and
  Checkpoint and then upgrade_import your configuration.  This is a much 
cleaner way
  than upgrade recommended by checkpoint/nokia
   
  2) if you have distribution installation, just save the /config/active file 
on the Nokia.
  After wipe the nokia clean.  Install new IPSO and checkpoint and apply the 
old active
  file.  This method require that you do cpconfig and re-SIC the Nokia with the 
  management server
   
  On the management, you do upgrade-export.  have a clean management server
  and upgrade-import the configuration.  SIC with the Nokia and repush the 
policy.
   
  3) Last but not least, detatch and re-attach the license to the Nokia 
enforcement
  modules.  by the way, the license is the same between NG FP3 and AI.
   
  does it help?

  Hi 

Can someone please advise me whether it is best to upgrade from FP3 as opposed 
to a fresh install of checkpoint of R55, not really 100% sure what path i 
should take here.

Checkpoint recommended upgrade, only clean install if the kernel has been 
modified in anyway. The IPSO be upgraded from 3.6 to 3.9 on various platforms.

I suppose the only difference here is that if i choose upgrade, i do not have 
to bother wil cpconfig, licence etc

Thanks for your help
