Conference iosg::all-in-1_v30

Actually, WPSPLUS V4.1 ships with ALL-IN-1 V3.0.

(Depends which you regard as the parent and which the child!) :-)

Richard

	Okay, so if it is WPS-PLUS V4.1 that ships with ALL-IN-1 V3.0...

	 Is this the US ENGLISH or BRITISH ENGLISH  version of WPS_PLUS? If it's
	the US ENGLISH version only, when will the BRITISH ENGLISH version
	ship with it? 

The US English version of ALL-IN-1 V3.0 including the US English version 
of WPSPLUS V4.1 is shipping throughout the word.

The BRITISH ENGLISH version of ALL-IN-1 V3.0 including the BRITISH 
English version of WPSPLUS V4.1 is currently shipping in the UK.

Richard

	When will the BRITISH ENGLISH version of ALL-IN-1 V3.0 including the 
BRITISH English version of WPSPLUS V4.1 be shipped on CD, in the UK? 

Paul

    The May edition of the CD-ROM includes both US ENGLISH and BRITISH versions 
    of ALL-IN-1 V3.0 in a single directory.

    Out of curiosity...
    
    At Macy's West, they are interested in upgrading to ALL-IN-1 V2.4-1.
    During a call to Atlanta (about the need for a new PAK for the upgraded
    version), the support person was unaware of a version 2.4-1.
    
    We are planning the upgrade for June 20th and are planning to use the
    March 92 CD (which says it has ALL-IN-1 V2.4 in it).
    
    How can I tell if this is the version I want to install?  They do want
    WPS-PLUS V4.0 included in the package.
    
    Thanks all...
Dan

    Dan,
    
    if you look back in the archived conference you'll see that it wasn't
    just Atlanta that were confused by the patch numbering scheme for v2.4
    but even Engineering - we had v2.4A, B, C, D etc ..., the K601 ...K605
    series, the V4 Option Kit and most recently a W patch.
    
    I don't have a CD player handy but my vague recollection is that the
    March CD had v2.4 + K603 (aka A1024SUS020) on it - perhaps if you tell
    us what directories, savesets etc are in [.KITS] We can identify what's
    there - you need OAWmumble for v4.
    
    Regards,

    You have to install A1024 then do the patches A1024SUS020 and OAW024. 
    I'm not sure what A1024PAT021 is.
    
    Ben

    Ben,
    
    A1024PAT021 is K604 so Dan should be ok - thanks for checking.
    
    The installation order is therefore
    1) A1024
    2) A1SUS020
    3) A1PAT021
    4) OAW024
    
    actually you can do 3 and 4 the other way round.
    
    regards,

    You should also skip relinking and recompiling the TXL and everything
    like that whenever you get a chance.  Actually, you can't skip much
    when you install A1024, and you shouldn't anyway, but whenever it gives
    you a choice, skip it until the end.
    
    Ben

    Thanks for the GREAT response here (and I'm glad some of it came from
    someone in Atlanta ;*).
    
    Anyway..., the customer is concerned about several things with this
    upgrade...
    
    1. Downtime, they are concerned about being down for a weekend while
       the installation is taking place.
    
    2. WPS-PLUS V4.0 testing would be desired to make sure that several of
       their UDPs won't break (they build WPS-PLUS control blocks with
       UDPs).
    
    It appears then, that as a miniumum we should install A1024 kit (base
    ALL-IN-1 V2.4.
    
    Is it necessary to install the other 3 parts as well?  They'd like to
    try out WPS-PLUS 4.0 before installing it for everyone, but they are
    not interested in parallel systems.  What are the advantages/disadvantages 
    to leaving these patches for another time?
    
    It appears to me that they can upgrade to WPS-PLUS V4.0 later without
    too significant of preparation (outside of warning users and beefing up
    training to the help desk (and training personnel)).  Are these patches
    required for WPS-PLUS V4.0 ONLY or are there repairs to other parts of
    ALL-IN-1?
    
    I.e., the customer is NOT interested in upgrading to WPS-PLUS at this
    time.  What *should* be installed?
    
    Thanks for all the help (so far)...
Dan

    Dan,
    
    ... and this was supposed to be a quickie???
    
    Anything that's a K patch fixes bits of ALL-IN-1 that don't work
    you know Sender/Fetcher, Archiving, FCVR, Housekeeping etc...
    
    You should install K603 aka A1024SUS020 - it fixes quite a few things
    but it'll take you an hour or two.
    
    Both the WPS-PLUS v4 thingy and K604 (A1PAT021) require K603 installed
    so you can do both/either of these later.
