James,

Another heads up, If you use Supply Web or Autorelease beware of many 
issues in the interfaces, especially any customized interfaces.  Spent two 
months waiting on fixes and changes to support this jump.  If you have 
much customized code testing will be your best friend.

James,
You do not need the complete AMALIB. The migration tool only uses the 
AxxPMD data areas from AMALIB. You will also need to create an MMLIST 
record for the R6 environment. 

Database files are not affected with regards to i6.1/i7.1 so they will 
restore just fine.

Note that the R9 migration tool currently does not support data migration 
to R9.1 (PTF level 02390). SH15821 will be updated as soon as the 
migration tool supports migration to R9.1. In the meantime, you can 
install R9 and upgrade to PTF level 02110, then run the data migration and 
upgrade to R9.1 after the data migration.

Thx,
Christophe Heyman
