I dont see a migration/upgrade path in the installation manual for WID6.0.2 from WID 6.0.1. (windows XP) . I understand that 6.0.2 is a new release and just not a fix pack thing.
when i try to install 6.0.2, the wizard detects 6.0.1 and informs to use Rational Product Updater.
I have used RPU to apply fixes where i provide a Policy.XML file to update the products. I dont see such policy file for 6.0.2.
seems like I have to uninstall 6.0.1 and install 6.0.2.

any one upgraded to 6.0.2 from 6.0.1 ? any pointers to documentation ?

Thanks

I would think that the 6.0.2 update would be available through the network and that RPU would just find it online for you.

I tried using the updates on RPU. for some reason it failed to find the IBM ftp site. Will work some more on it .
somehow it doesnt seem proper to install using a ibm ftp site. Usually these are like 2/3 GB software and not feasible for most users.
I am trying not to uninstall 6.0.1 to put 6.0.2.
anyways thanks for your suggestion.

For installing 6.0.2, no need to uninstall existing version of 6.0.1 you can use RPU to update to 6.0.2.

Had to restore to default RPU settings..
Rational Product Updater -> preferences -> update sites --> Restore defaults

connected to correct repositories and upgraded to 6.0.2 with no issues

Thanks
