9.5.1 Hotfixes

Post by Alan Kirk »

This thread will be used to keep track of known hotfix releases for 9.5.1. Rather than "sticky" this thread I've added links to the hotfix release threads for various versions (including this one) to the FAQ post. I'll update this thread and the other ones as further hotfixes are released.

See also: What Hotfixes are, and how to install them..

Hotfix 1 for TM1 9.5.1 (aka TM1 9.5.1 HF1)

This is an internal hotfix which addressed an issue in a future release of IBM Cognos Express.

Hotfix 2 for TM1 9.5.1 (aka TM1 9.5.1 HF2), 28-JUL-10

COGCQ00270147 (PM17715) TM1 API - TM1ObjectAttributeValuesSet showing error [37] ObjectAttributeInvalidType (server fix)

Hotfix 3 for TM1 9.5.1 (aka TM1 9.5.1 HF3), 16-AUG-10

PM18707 Wrong display of cyrillic characters in TM1 Workflow

951_HF3_workflow.zip contains two files:
TM1 Planning Manager.xla
sm_upgrade_v951_HF3.pro

Install 9.5.1 workflow. Extract the content of the 951_HF3_workflow.zip file to a temporary folder. Copy the new 9.5.1 HF3 TM1 Planning Manager.xla into the bin directory. Additionally, the sm_upgrade_v951_HF3.pro file should be added to any database that Workflow will be used with.

Once the .pro (new TI process) has been added, start the server and run the process. It will default to Tahoma for the font and 204 for the character set - those are the necessary settings to display the basic Russian alphabet.

Hotfix 4 for TM1 9.5.1 (aka TM1 9.5.1 HF4), 18-AUG-10

Hotfixes are cumulative. HF2 includes HF1. HF3 will include HF2 and HF1, and so on.

Alan,

I think you might be looking at the date you downloaded it rather than the release date. The date of the HF2 files on the FTP site is 26-Jul-10.

I got a notification of release from IBM this morning. Well, last night technically, my time. It's entirely possible and even probable that they finalised and packed them a day or so before release, but that's neither here nor there; the point is that they're out there this very day, as we speak even.

Thanks. Where are you getting the release note items from ?

I'm getting conflicting information about when hotfixes are coming out and what will be in them - so I'm just looking for definitive information...

Directly from IBM Support. I'm a little surprised that they aren't being embedded in the zip files, but I'd expect that support would normally supply them to people who may have issues outstanding which are rectified by the relevant HF.

Sorry, I don't have any information on what's coming out in the future, just the notes on what has been released. Actually I don't have all of those either; I don't have the skinny on 9.1.4's latest HF (15) but I'm going to see if I can get a copy of that as well.

Hotfix 3 has been released but given that the release addresses only one problem ("Wrong display of cyrillic characters in TM1 Workflow") it's probably going to be of less than universal interest. Still, if you're a Russian user, it's out there...

Hotfix 4 has been released. (Actually it was released about a week ago but I only found out about it this morning and had to get Iboglix to send me the details.) I would recommend that anyone who is using 9.5.1 take a look at this one (details in the main post of this thread) since it seems to address a substantial number of issues in that version.

I've applied the latest 9.5.1 hotfix but when I check the version in the 'about' splash screen it is showing 9.5.1, wheras I'd expect it to show something like 9.5.10004 can someone else with HF4 installed verify that on the splash screen it still just shows 9.5.1?

Many Thanks

It's a hotfix. Cosmetic changes aren't the priority in hotfixes from any supplier.

The version on the .exe files has changed from 9.5.10000.5424 to 9.5.10004.7950. The splash screen hasn't. When the next actual maintenance release / service pack / fix pack / whatever they're calling it this week is released, the "About" menu should be something that they'll change. (Whether it will or not is another matter.) Where it's a fix to bugs in the code, not so much.

Hi Alan,

Thanks for this, makes sense - actually looking at the log shows that the hotfix has been applied. I too was a bit confused between maintenance release, fixpacks and hotfixs but i gues a hotfix is like a patch where a maintenance release is like a service pack.

Ahh yes,
Sorry for the hasty reply before FULLY reading the thread. I was able to update to HF4 but was wondering if anyone noticed that TM1 web doesn't render long picklists? The shorter ones still show up but the longer ones don't even look as if they are attempting to read (no CPU activity when clicking the dropdown) just a blank box.
