Hi Pete,
I think that for ESS customers you have to actually do something like
order a no-charge upgrade part number and then the next version will
become available to you. As Joe indicates, you can download the product
from the Web with a 60 day trial license then install and use that until
your activation kit is available on ESS.

Would those be in ESS? Right now I see both the software and the
activation in ESS (v 7.6). Nothing for version 8 though.
I just shot off an email to IBM. Looks like some of my SWMA has expired
on my blade (sheesh! You'd think IBM could send out an electronic notice
of expiring SWMA?) but I don't think RDP was affected. Let's see what
they say....

How have folks been upgrading to RDP 8? I have SWMA and I am running
RDP 7.6 and I expected to see a download option in ESS but I don't. IBM
is my "business partner" (I purchase/lease directly from them) and I
will admit that in the past they have been a little flaky in managing
the license/SWMA records.
Just interested in where folks found/obtained their "upgrade".
