Installation Notes

The system requirements and steps for installing or upgrading to a Lotus Traveler maintenance release are the same as for a major release. You can obtain the full install package from Passport Advantage or an upgrade package from Fix Central.

Please review the 8.5.2 Product Documentation links below prior to installation.

Important
When upgrading to 8.5.2.4, the defrag function may run automatically during the first start of the Lotus Traveler server. This will happen any time the database schema is updated as a result of the upgrade. The server will start normally once the defragmentation is completed. Depending on database size and system capabilities, the defragmentation may take longer than 30 minutes. Please plan this time into any scheduled maintenance window for upgrade. It is recommended to manually run the database defrag approximately once a month for enhanced performance.
