Re: Question about upgrading RDP

Jack,

I installed RDP 8.5 by going to the IBM rational website, and downloading
the trial. Once I installed the trial 8.5 on the 3 machines here in the
office that already had a license, the software recognized the license, and
the permanent license was active.

Search for IBM rational RDP in Google. The first hit I got was the right
one.

Do I have to install a new installation manager?

Thanks

You can't really upgrade from 8.03 to 8.5. You have to install 8.5.

I bought a 1 year license to RDP. My about screen shows this:



IBM Rational Developer for Power Systems Software 5724-Y99, 5733-RDG,
5733-RDH, 5733-RDJ, 5733-RDC

Version: 8.0.3



Charles Guarino did a good session at Common on how to get started with
RDP.
He also mentioned that 8.5 is out.



How do I upgrade? I tried installation manager but it doesn't show RDP.
It
shows the license manager and the installation manager.





Thanks, Jack.
