Debbie - here are the answers to your questions:

After upgrading, what is TemplateSetup number in notes.ini set to? If it is set to 850005 then the appropriate Setup code is being run.
>>>ANSWER: TemplateSetup is set to 850005.

- Is the design of bookmark.nsf getting upgraded during this process? If so, then that verifies that the code is getting called.
>>>ANSWER: The bookmark is being set via a new policy written in the 8.5 Administrator using the My Workplace style tabs.

- Are the PNAB databases on the upgraded machines named the default names.nsf? If not, then "NAMES=" needs to be set in notes.ini.
>>>ANSWER: Yes, all clients use names.nsf as the filename and filetype.

- Once the client is up and running, are you able to successfully replace the PNAB's design from the File->Application menu? If not, then this could be an access problem
>>>ANSWER: Yes, am able to replace the design at the users client. I did notice that some names listed as Manager with all roles were of the form username/<old Org> and most had the new username/<OU/O> format. In either case both had proper permissions and able to replace design.

When the image is created ona machine the, the previous names.nsf is copied from the old users machine (via a common shared drive.) When launching Notes 8.5, we had to go thru setup to rebind the client to the server. Therefore, the Notes.in file is not fully created when the image is loaded. It has to run thru setup with the TemplateSetup=850005. This , as you mentioned before, prohibits the names.nsf (and other things I'm sure) from being upgraded. Once we set the number back and relaunch the client, the splash screen indicates that updates are being made to databases. All clients names.nsf are upgraded.

I would suggest that the labs simulate this.
