Re: IBM Rational Developer for i 9.8.0.4 fixpack is now available!

Hi Dan and Daniel,

Yes, RDi includes its own Java and ACS and those versions were updated in 9.8.0.4.  They are often updated in fixpacks.

For this fixpack, we included some security updates to help ensure customers don’t get exposed to security issues.

Thanks,

RDi comes with its very own installation of iACS and its own Java runtime - these are installed inside the RDi base folder, and only used by RDi.

As 9.8.0.4 seems to have no other new features, it might be a fix for the Windows 11 24H2 / SentinelOne problem, that many of us have.

We had no private beta and no further information from Fortra - maybe we receive some info later.

HTH
