6.01 Upgrades under Domino, not Notes on notes.net

The incremental installers are under the domino download page, not the notes download page.

Subject: Except they are Full Install’s, not Incrementals.

Subject: Moved to right place and they are incremental

They are just very large incrementals.

All client incremental - 97meg

All client install - 129meg

They are now under notes, no longer under domino.

Subject: Well…

I downloaded the 97 MB ‘incremental’ installer, and it performed a new install. Didn’t look or behave like an incremental to me.

Subject: RE: Well…

Maybe that’s a side effect of MSI.

Smart enough to replace newer files only ?

Subject: The Notes 6 to 6.0.1 client installers are no longer “incremental”

It more of an “upgrade kit.” It does a full install of 6.0.1 but you need 6.0 in order to run the upgrade. We’re working on changing the description to no longer use the word “Incremental”

So I have to pull these huge files across the network to do upgrades ongoing? How is that better?

Subject: RE: The Notes 6 to 6.0.1 client installers are no longer “incremental”

Yes, but why is the MacOS “upgrade kit” still not online (beside for passport customer if I understand previous posts) ???

Subject: RE: The Notes 6 to 6.0.1 client installers are no longer “incremental”

Because you need Passport to qualify for an upgrade? As I understand it, ND6 can only be purchased under a maintenance agreement. Forget about perpetual free versions of Notes/Domino; those days are gone.

Subject: RE: The Notes 6 to 6.0.1 client installers are no longer “incremental”

Never mind all that… what about that huge flaming rigmarole that IBM make you go through every time you download an upgrade, trial, heck anything!

It is so annoying. And what’s with the persistent surveys about the quality of their websites? Why keep asking if they’re patently not going to do anything about them? (LDD excluded natch)

First, it’s clear that if Notes 6 was available for purchase online without going through the passport process, I would have send money a long time ago as I did for Notes 5 :wink:

Second, I think it’s not fair to see the WinX upgrade online for everyone but that the MacOS version is restricted to the passport subscribers…
