Hi all, I am busy with an implementation of Notes 9.0.1 I need someone to tell me if I need to implement FP3,4,5,6,7 in order or if I implement FP7 only it will still have all the fixes from all the other fix packs?

I am trying to implement TLS1.0 and TLS1.2 configuration with a custom internal CA cert. I am busy working through the process. I just need a bit of help :)

Cumulative

Feature Packs (as they are now) are cumulative, so what's in FP1 will be in FP7.  Hotfixes, however, are not and you need to uninstall before installing a FP.

I haven't checked on ND9, but I also ran across something with 8.5

With 8.5, not only did we need the feature packs, we also needed to track down & install some IBM JVM fixpacks as well.

WIth 8.5 an IBM support doc actually says this ... somewhere ... in 2 or 3 sentences. And I overlooked it 'til another admin pointed out its significance.

D Porter is correct. They are cumulative
This is stated in the top of each release notice here "Fix Packs are always cumulative and contain all of the fixes from previous ones."

To comment on Mike Woolsey's statement, the 901 FPs will have the latest JVM update at that point in time, but if a new JVM update comes out, there will be a patch released that can be applied on top of the FP.
