[c-nsp] 7500 having problems after upgrade from 12.0.19S2 to12.0.31S1

[CLAEREBOUDT Elke]

Hi rodney,

So going from 12.0.19S2 to 12.3.16 should go without problem ?
Why doesn't cisco put some comments on new releases so we are warned of
any memory requirements ?

thx

elke

I agree that is a better approach but we just don't have it yet.
