Before upgrading, verify that all components are at the minimum supported versions, including fix pack and text fix levels.
Apply the required minimum level FileNet® P8 software updates for the release you are currently running before you upgrade.
Applying a fix pack for one component might require fix packs for other components. Prior to applying any fix pack, review the IBM® FileNet P8 Compatibility Matrix on the http://www.ibm.com/software/data/support/ to assure compatibility between all installed components.
