Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible

Frank,  my BP has been unsuccessful in getting this accomplished for me.  Can you provide any details on what
it is that your BP submitted to IBM to get this? 

Thanks

Jon

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible

I downloaded the trial version & installed.  It applied my license info 
automagically.  I couldn't find a place to download via ESS or passport 
advantage either and my SWMA is current.  Seems that IBM has severely 
hosed things with them changing their website around lately.

Thanks,
Tommy Holden

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible


Hello folks,
We checked with our planner as to the process for ordering via ESS or PA
and this is what she told us.

In AAS,  the entitled RD Power customer needs to place a no-charge order
to see RD Power 8.5  in ESS for download.  The no charge order to place is
5733-RDG feature code 5839.  The 8.5 activation kit is included in the
download.  Sometimes, AAS customers are not aware of this extra ordering
step before they can download the code in ESS.

In Passport, the entitled RD Power customer will automatically see the 8.5
code to download. They then go to obtain the 8.5 activation kit in the
Rational keys center.

Hopefully this clears up any confusion and you can all get the latest and
greatest for your productivity and pleasure.

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible

Is there a reason for a Business Partner to prefer ESS over PA (other than that's the way they've always done
it)?  Does PA skip over the BP (in terms of them getting a cut)?   

I tried to get our BP to switch us to PA, and what I got was an ESS download of RDP, which I had already gotten from
the free trial link.

-Kurt

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible


If I understand things correctly
 BP's can be certified for hardware or software or both.
BP's with hardware certification get incentives for orders through ESS
BP's with software certification get incentives for orders through PA
Your BP may not have software certification or may simply be more used to
ESS.
As you are aware PA is better optimized for keeping track of your SWMA
renewals at this time.

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible

Tommy, when I try to download the trial version, it downloads the
installation manager,  I already have the IM.  Where do you go to
download the RDP 8.5 trial version?

Thanks

Jon

Re: Downloading RDP 8.5 from ESS not possible


Jon,

When you go to the RD Power trials downloads page, you can choose either
the Web Install method or the zip download.

The Web Install method downloads an Installation Manager which has been
preconfigured to be able to install the RD Power trial from a IBM-hosted
repository.  It is a regular IM but has the repository defined.
