Hello,

I have been looking around and couldnt find a complete and clear roadmap to upgrade a domino server.

In my case, i only want to upgrade from 8.5 to 8.51

I need to know all the steps needed to do an upgrade.

Could anyone post it, or point me to a place where it’s written please.

Thanks

Here is a link to a process for upgrading System i that gives a fair bit of details:

Personally, doing a point release upgrade tends to be pretty straightforward. Just review the release notes, plan implementation of new features, roll out to a clustered mail server, then roll out to all other servers if there aren’t any issues. By having key databases (e.g., NAMES.NSF, mailfiles) based on custom templates and disabling replication of templates, you can control the spread of R8.5.1 through your Domino infrastructure.
