IBM Notes/Domino 9.0.1 Feature Pack 8 Preliminary Release Notice January 27, 2017 Beginning with 9.0.1 FP8, fix packs have been renamed to feature packs. To ensure quality, these feature packs still have a high focus on addressing high impacting defects. Where possible, these features are optional enabled to minimize risk. The same packaging, architecture and install kits used in previous fix packs remain in use for feature packs. IBM has identified important Notes/Domino SPRs to be fixed in the latest Feature Pack release, 9.0.1 Feature Pack 8. This notice serves as the Preliminary Fix List. All fixes in this Feature Pack have been selected through our Triage process of high impacting customer requested bug fixes and are currently undergoing testing. IBM reserves the right to remove any fix from this targeted release if it does not pass quality engineering tests. Please consider this information to be provisional. Do not base irreversible business decisions on this information until the Feature Pack has been officially released. The Notes/Domino Fix List website on developerWorks will show you the status of this Feature Pack on the Upcoming Releases tab. This preliminary Release Notice will be updated to include a more descriptive explanation of the problem and fix, where applicable. Also, a link to the technote and regression information will be provided. Notes/Domino 9.0.1 Feature Pack 8 addresses defects in the Client, Server, and the Domino OpenSocial component. All Feature Packs are language independent and may be applied on any language version of Notes/Domino 9.0.1. Notes/Domino 9.0.1 Feature Pack 8 includes new features that benefit our customers. Some of these features have been in development for years and we are excited to make them available. Please refer to the "New Features" section below for more details. Supersedes 9.0.1 Feature Pack 8 includes all of the content and supersedes the following deliverables:
Decision to upgrade Customers are urged to upgrade to the latest Release and Feature Packs (in this case, 901FP8) to benefit from later features and fixes made to the product. By providing a number of features and fixes, customers are able to accept fewer code changes with lower risk, allowing them to "patch" an older Maintenance Release. Feature Packs provide important fixes and IBM strongly recommends applying the latest Feature Pack available for a Maintenance Release to receive the broadest set of fixes available. Things to Note:
New Features in IBM® Domino® 9.0.1 Social Edition Feature Pack 8 The documentation in Knowledgebase will be updated with these new features to coincide with the ship date of 9.0.1 FP8 1) Optionally Move Views outside of NSF for Increased data store in NSF. This feature is useful for large databases and provides the following benefits: - A smaller database file size, to avoid reaching the 64GB limitation. - Faster database backup and restore. - Better performance by allowing concurrent access to database and views. 2) Java Upgrade to 1.8. The Java run time environment provided with Domino has been upgraded to Java JRE version 1.8 to provide you with access to the latest features. 3) Optionally Increase Document Summary Data (SPR #AKNX64TLRS APARID: LO04193) You can increase the document summary data limit on Notes 9 databases to 16MB from 64K. (The size limit for a single field remains 32 K.) 4) Add support for ADFS 3.0 and update the corresponding Cookbook instructions for configuration. New Features in IBM® Notes® 9.0.1 Social Edition Feature Pack 8 1) Optionally Add Show Options: "Group By Date" And "Beginning Of Message", To Desktop Policy Settings (SPR #JSTN98BP3T APARID: LO75595) Administrators can add the notes.ini setting EnableGroupByDate=1 on mail servers to enable the Show > Group By Date option in all mail files. 2) Optionally Retain MIME formatting when forwarding or replying to internet messages A notes.ini setting is now available for Notes Standard clients to retain MIME message formatting when users reply to or forward messages received from the internet. Without this setting, MIME messages are converted to Notes Rich Text which can cause some MIME formatting to be lost. 3) Optionally Enable displaying internet addresses in mail and calendar documents You can enable internet addresses rather than Notes addresses to display in the Notes client mail and calendar. For example, display sdaryn@renovations.com rather than Samantha Daryn/Renovations@Renovations. To enable this feature, add the following setting to the notes.ini file on a Notes client $INETADDRESSFIXUP=1 Fixes contained in this Feature Pack A plus symbol (+) before the SPR number indicates a fix for a regression bug. A regression bug is an issue that was introduced in a Maintenance Release but did not exist in previous releases of that code stream. For example, a bug that appears in 9.0.1 but did not exist in 9.0.0 is a regression. If an APAR exists for the corresponding SPR, the APAR number will appear in parentheses next to the SPR number. For example, SPR #nnnnnnnnnn (LO12345).
