I was looking on the product download & patch site. There is no patch to go from 8.1 to 8.1.01 that I can see for arserver, look like you have to download the big installer and apply it.
So I will have arserver & mid tier on 8.1.01 and the ITSM application on 8.1 Then I will apply the 8.1.01.P1 patches that are available Then maybe it will all work Its enough to make you turn to drink On Wed, Jul 16, 2014 at 4:36 PM, Carl Wilson <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > > For the full ITSM upgrade? > > You can upgrade the Mid-Tier only where required, or just apply the > Mid-Tier patch to your current setup.
