FP4 for Domino 10.0.1 on IBM i

Domino 10.0.1 has been available on the IBM i for a number of months now, however there have been no Fix Packs available for 10.0.1 on the platform to this point. That changes today, October 4 2019.

Many have been wondering where FPs for 10.0.1 on the IBM i have been. The reality is 10.0.1 for the IBM i has been 10.0.1.1 as the code load contains the fixes included in FP1. However, there have been no 10.0.1 FPs for the IBM i since, until today. This is due to issues HCL found in their internal testing that prevented them from releasing 10.0.1 FPs for the platform.

The issues are still being worked, so what HCL has done in order to get the FP4 code out to the IBM i community is create a full install for FP4. This means the prior 10.0.1 product needs to be deleted before FP4 can be installed. As is the case for the full product load, there are 3 savefiles associated with the installation.

  • QNOTES – *BASE of the 10.0.1 product
  • QNOTESAP – Option 1 which is the C API
  • QNOTESRL – Option 11 which is 10.0.1 (with FP4)

A couple of things to be aware of with FP4 being a full installation rather than just installation of a Fix Pack:

  • If you have Traveler installed with 10.0.1, you will need to reinstall Traveler after installation of FP4.
  • If you have any language packs installed, they will need to be reinstalled after installation of FP4.

For the official technote regarding FP4 for the IBM i refer to KB0069162.

Details on the installation of FP4 are in KB0069486.
