Hello,

We have one customer which is (still) using DSS V5 b3518 in 32-bit mode with 32-bit (volume groups) iSCSI targets and NAS_shares.
This storage was working for about 3 years without any major problem

Now, they found interesting new DSS V7.
So, they wonder if it is possible to upgrade from DSS V5 b3518 32-bit directly to DSS V7?
With maintaining all data (on iSCSI_targaets and NAS_shares) available.
Setup&Configuration would be saved in DSS V5 and then restored in DSS V7.
Of course, they need to purchase full DSS V7 licence.
Is this possible?

And one more thing:
As far as I saw, new DSS V7 has no longer 32-bit item in BOOT menu.
So it always BOOT in 64-bit mode.
Can DSS V7 64-bit recognise and work with 32-bit volume_groups?
