If you installed the IBM Connections plug-ins for IBM Notes
and you are updating your IBM Notes client to 9.0, make sure that
IBM Connections is selected on the Notes installation panel when you upgrade.
About this task
While you upgrading the existing Notes client to IBM Notes
9.0, make sure that IBM Connections is checked
on the Notes installation panel. Otherwise, you do not get the sidebar
applications for Activities, Files, and Status Updates. The sidebar
applications depend on the IBM Connections Business Card plug-in.
For example, if you have IBM Connections plug-ins for IBM Notes installed
with Notes 8.5.3, then you upgrade the Notes 8.5.3 client to IBM Notes
9.0, select IBM Connections as an installation
option. If you do not select IBM Connections,
the Activities and Status Updates sidebar applications will not display
after you upgrade the client.
Procedure
- Make sure that your IBM Notes client is closed before you
begin the upgrade.
- Start the IBM Notes 9.0 installer.
- Select IBM Connections on the Custom
Setup panel.
- Click Finish.
