This morning (3/24/06)I upgraded our blackboard production system from 6.3.1.505 to 6.3.1.574 (SP2 for
app pak3)
I also installed the recompiled and repackaged custom auth binaries.

-Shutdown blackboard services
-Shutdown all IIS
-Shutdown database
-Broke the mirror sets for the database logs and the database data files.
-Broke the app data mirror.
-Removed the custom auth and references to it.
-Pushed out the updates.
-Restarted BB and tested.

-Ran the updater.
-Installed the new custom auth binaries.
-Reenabled the custom auth.
-Added the links and references to the custom auth.
-Pushed out the updates.
-Tested basic functions.
Total downtime was ~1:20

-*Now that we have been up for a while with much more testing it's time to remirror the disks.
