    SLP_DSSU_MIGRATION_STATE="1"
    LIST_FS_IMAGE_HEADERS="0"

     

    Anyway, i have since uninstalled, reinstalled 7.1, restored catalog, and performed the upgrade.

    Took a full 8 hrs, luckily this time it managed to import the old backup images correctly.

    I think there's a technote with regards to the setup.exe crashing in 2008 R2 and the resolution was to reboot the server, then perform the install again.

    So lessons to be learnt.

    1. Reboot your windows server prior to any major upgrade to be safe
    2. Always have a latest catalog backup, i had mine backed up to disk so the restore was relatively smooth.

    Thanks for the help guys.
