Applying maintenance to MQe
Maintenance updates for MQe are shipped as a complete new release.
There are two options when upgrading from one release to another:
- Completely uninstall the current level, and install the new level in the
same directory
Keep the install package for the current level, in case you want to
restore it later.
- Keep the existing level and install the new level into a new directory
After installation, check your classpath to ensure
that the latest level of MQe is being invoked. If installing on Windows®,
make sure that you give the shortcuts folder for the new install a different
name to the existing one.
