Hello Everyone. I’m quite new to Lotus Domino and Notes. In 2 weeks time, I’ll be upgrading a system running on Domino 4.62 together with Notes Client to version 6.5. I need advice on how to go about this and anything to consider or to look out for. Can I upgrade it straight away to 6.5 or do I need to update anything like patch or do i need to go to version 5 first or anything. Thanks in advance.

Ibm suggest to upgrade prior to 4.6.7…Take a look to this redbook is a good way to start…

Thanks for your reply. I saw this from the release note of R6.5
Administrator Client, Client, Designer, Server
Upgrading to Notes/Domino 6 is supported from 4.5.x
Please note that IBM/Lotus supports upgrading from R4.5.x and later releases, to Notes/Domino 6. Any references in the Lotus Notes 6 and Domino 6 Administrator Help files requiring at least R4.6.7 to upgrade to Notes/Domino 6 are incorrect.
Note: To replicate the Domino 6 Domino Directory to Domino 4.6 servers, you must upgrade Domino 4.6 servers to Domino 4.6.7a.
