Updating Altiris DS 6.9 SP2 to 7.1

Are there any guides or documentation on this? I've searched the KB's and googled to no avail. I have a pretty vanilla install, one site, only using a non branded version of the DS. Just curius if anyone here has done it before and has any insight.

AFAIK, version 7.1 has yet to be released to the public.  Latest I see on Symantec is 6.9 SP3.  Looking at the Beta portal, I do not even see version 7 of Deployment solution listed as a beta.

Odd though that I see at http://www.altiris.com/Support/Documentation.aspx#d the documentation for Deployment Solution for Clients 7.0 documentation.

As far as I understand that is correct as well.  6.9 SP3 just released from beta and is officially the current version of stand alone DS.  There is some DS 7.X in the 7 version of Client Management Suite but you are unable to use PXE the last time I checked
