What is a best practices approach to supported Portal versions in a deployment?
I've been asked what is a best practices approach to support WebSphere Portal and WebSphere Application Server versions in a typical production environment.
Here's the simple (but important) answer:
Although other configurations and versions may be supported, my advice is:
Stick to the suggestions made on the WebSphere Portal Server Support Page: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/genservers/portal/support/" title="http://www-306.ibm.com/software/genservers/portal/support/">http://www-306.ibm.com/software/genservers/portal/support/
The section "Recommended fixes and updates" contains quality recommendations about version dependencies between WebSphere Portal, WCM, WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere Process Server.
It is a best practice approach to regularly check the Support Page for important updates.
If you plan to update a certain component of your deployment, check the dependencies first and download other necessary fixes, if applicable.
