When replicate May2024 SR1 will be available ?

[feal]

Hello

i'd like to know when Qlik Replicate May 2024  Service Release  1(SR1) (and dependent Qlik Enterprise Manager)  will be available : we want to migrate our current version (May 2023) to that one.

Actually in Product Downloads | Qlik Community only Initial Release is available (see attached png) 
Can you give me a general avaliability date for SR1  in order to proper plan migration of all our environments ?

Thanks in advance and regards

A. Ferrario

Hi John

thank for the update but  we prefer Replicate May 2024  install SR1 when available instead as done in previous migration path.

Is it possible to have a indication of  deliver date of Service Release 1  (SR1) ?

Let me know

regards

AF

Hello @feal ,

It appears I haven't received that information yet. The Qlik Replicate SR in the download link will be one of the service packs (SP). Generally, the latest formal build release is recommended; currently, SP02 is the most recent one available.

Additionally, please review the support matrix for Qlik Replicate 2024.5 to ensure that the source/target endpoints ODBC versions, and Linux/Windows Server versions are within the supported scope.

Finally, remember to back up the DATA folder before proceeding with the upgrade.

Regards,

John.

Hi John

thanks for the update : however why "patch 2" is not avaialble for download via product support portal (see attached png) ? "Patch 2" is different from SP2  you sent  ?

You send this 

" ..

Replicate 2024.5 SP02 https://files.qlik.com/url/qr2024050316sp02 (expires 10/31/2024)

"

so we are forced to download for the link before October 31, 2024 ? Will be possible to dowmload May2024 version also after that date ? We are forced to use May 2024 version and not future November  2024 version because we have to perform May2023->May2024  with Direct Upgrade Path  on a single step and a migration  May2023->November2024 is not possible on Direct Upgrade Path (as I can see in the documentation) 

" 

..

Direct upgrade is supported from the last two versions only (including any service releases for those versions). The last two versions are Replicate May 2023 SR and Replicate November 2023 SR.

..

Let me know

Hello @feal ,

>> "Patch 2" is different from SP2 you sent ?
The "Patch 2" of Release Number is different than SP02 (Service Patch 02).
In the picture, the "Patch 2" is in grey which is not available for the selected Products and Release.

>> so we are forced to download for the link before October 31, 2024 ?

Not really. The above download link will expire at October 31, 2024. However,the SR2 will be ready on the download page someday.

>> We are forced to use May 2024 version and not future November 2024 version because we have to perform May2023->May2024 with Direct Upgrade Path on a single step and a migration May2023->November2024 is not possible on Direct Upgrade Path (as I can see in the documentation)

A direct upgrade is only supported from the last two versions. However, performing a two-step upgrade is straightforward:

1. Upgrade from version 2023.5 to 2024.5.
2. Then, upgrade from 2024.5 to 2024.11.

There is no need to perform any startup tasks between steps 1 and 2. The two-step upgrade process is necessary to ensure that the repository files are upgraded incrementally.

John.
