Edition upgrades
Considerations when Edition configurations are involved in an upgrade include:
Upgrades from non-edition servers to edition servers are eligible for the
content of the full edition.
Upgrades from edition servers are eligible only for i5/OS or OS/400 content
and 5250 capacity.
The High Availability edition must be converted to the Enterprise Edition prior
to an upgrade. No additional content is offered for the conversion.
The Model 800 Value to Standard and Standard to Advanced Edition allow
only for 5250 capacity for the upgrade.
Upgrades from the 520 Value Edition to any other Edition are not supported.
The iSeries for Domino (iSeries Models 810 and 825) leverage the Standard
Edition and, therefore, can be upgraded to any of the supported Standard or
Enterprise Edition offerings.
No model path upgrades are available into the Model 550 Domino or Solution
Editions.
Upgrades from the Model 550 Domino Edition to the Enterprise Edition are
not available.
