Hi Zoltan, It's fine to upgrade the clients first... you won't see warnings because the clients know they are talking to a back-level server and will speak the right "language". The best practice is to upgrade the servers first so all the certificates are there and it will make sure the securit

In fact a q server f=d shows Session Security: Transitional, but each time I log on to the server using the admin command line, my admin userid is getting updated from transitional to strict! Upd admin transitional works but as soon as I log on it's being switched back to Strict. Kind regards, E

Hi Eric, Once you connect with a "trusted" client and the certificate is distributed, the mode is set to back to STRICT. The idea is that userid/adminid now has the certificate, it must supply it when you reconnect to verify you are who you say you are. You could reset the admin back to TRANS

Content preview: Yeah, now that you mention it, we ran into this as well. It wasn't so serious for us since we already had one of our admin systems upgraded to 7.1.8, but it was kind of surprising for the folks that still used the down-level client. Fortunately there were no dependen

Del, Thanks for the info. Some of it is useful and I have seen most of it. I have a question about the reverse i.e. clients who have upgraded to 8.1.2+ and 7.1.8.There was this dire warning in the 8.1.2 upgrade docs about upgrading your servers before installing 8.1.2 clients or your backups

>>>admin to sessionsecurity=transitional (strange, this should be the default...) and now I could start a session successful. I concur. I remember having this same problem when I upgraded my test server to 8.1.3 eventhough the docs say "transitional" is the default. On Thu, Jan 4, 2018 at 8:42 AM

Hi Del, Well, not really... I'm currently installing a 7.1.8 server and noticed that I could no longer use a 7.1.7 admin commandline: ANR0404W Session 22 for administrator ADMIN (Linux x86-64) refused - client is down-level with this server version. So I upgraded it to 7.1.8, but it was still n

I agree with you about the lack of completely clear information. I have a test server that I upgraded to 8.1.3 and with the default SESSIONSECURITY value we had mixed and inconsistent results with the few clients I tested. We also had to go through the key conversion process even though (IIRC) doc

I too read all the previous posts, but I still don't know what to do. Your mail also indicates that your upgrade planning is based on several assumptions and I think it is really time for IBM to jump in here. I think someone from development should explain a little bit about the new security des
