java.lang.NullPointerException when upgrading from 6020 to 7001

Hi,

I'm upgrading a 6000 server to 7001, however I've hit a problem. The 6010 and 6020 upgrades worked fine, however when I apply the 7001 upgrade I get the following error:
---

I've had to apply the following changes:
Add "-Dtools.discSpaceCheck=false" to UpdateManager.sh
After 6010 patch, remove ">" from the beginning of the first line. (I'm pretty sure this is a bug in your upgrade.)

I've taken a backup of the mysql directory after every upgrade so I was able to back out of the 7001 upgrade and it works fine on 6020 now.

Cheers,
Tor Magnus
