Dear friends

as far as I understand, the upgrade from IDS 9.40.UCx to IDS 9.40.FCx is
only dynamic shared memory matter,
which means no job on chunks needs to be done, only ONCONFIG shared
memory parameters and binaries replacement
is required. Could you confirm? Or am I wrong?
Thanks a lot

Regards

Rasto

There are small changes on disk, but the server looks after those for
you. Yes, to upgrade from 9.40.UCx to 9.40.FCy (y >= x) is simply a
question of installing the new software and restarting the server.

IIRC, in 9.40 you can also revert 64-bit to 32-bit - I forget whether
there's a manual step to do or not.
