Posted on 30st January 2013

IBM Notes 9 Beta Install

There were a number of announcements from the opening day of IBM Connect 2013.

With the release of the beta version of IBM Notes 9 earlier in December 2012 IBM have announced that the release date for the finished product is the end of March 2013! That's not far away.

Have you tried the beta? Do you need help with installation or configuration?

Here we have outlined the install of IBM Notes 9 Beta (incl Domino Designer and Domino Admin) with some screen shots of what IBM Notes looks like both in the client and the browser. These are split into the client install and the server install.

In this first part we concentrate on the server.
