Re: 6.5.4 Upgrade from 5.0.8

Please, please, please, do a full system save prior to the upgrade.  I had 
major issues with a customer running DECS.  It killed the app.  They are 
in the process of  converting to .Net, but are getting ready to go out of 
business.

6.5.4 Upgrade from 5.0.8






Hi everyone,

I'm pretty new to the Notes/Domino world, and one of the tasks I've
inherited is an upgrade. We're  using Domino basically for web access
(almost no Notes clients; most users come in with a browser), and we're
currently at 5.0.8. We'd like to get to 6.5.4 asap, and I've got a test
(Windows) network to play on,  but I have a couple of concerns that I
can't test:

1) We're using LEI v3.0, which I've read won't work with Notes 6.x. If I
upgrade LEI also, am I likely to be all set? Does it matter if I upgrade
LEI before or after the server upgrade?

2) We're also using LSX for ODBC connections to our AS/400 (currently at
V5R2). Are there any gotchas with using this after the upgrade?

Ive been reading everything I can find about upgrades, and the process
seems pretty straightforward, but since I've never done this before I'm
worried that there's something basic that I'm missing. . . .

Thanks very much!
