What affected the reliability of the system?: Nature of the problem

It is interesting to compare the implementation of the Unix migration with phase II. On the face of it, the Unix migration had the potential to be as problematic as phase II and they were making the same reassuring noises before hand (00136). In practice the Unix migration went very smoothly and with very few problems (00762). The developers were very careful with the Unix migration because they knew that they could not afford another disaster however my impression was that unlike phase II it just turned out to be a much easier job.
