IBM® Sterling Connect:Direct® for Windows 6.2 documentation

IBM® Sterling Connect:Direct® is point-to-point (peer-to-peer) file-based integration middle ware meant for 24x365 unattended operation, which provides assured delivery, high-volume, and secure data exchange within and between enterprises. It is optimized for high performance and throughput and moves files containing any type of data (text, EDI, binary, digital content, image) across multiple platforms, disparate file systems, and disparate media. It is used by many industries throughout the world to move large volumes of data and for connecting to remote offices.

Important: Due to an issue with the installer component codes in Connect:Direct Windows 6.2.0.0, it must not be used for new or upgrade installations. Instead, use Connect:Direct Windows 6.2.0.1, or later, available on IBM Fix Central. The accompanying Fix List includes instructions on using a maintenance package to perform new and upgrade installations. The version of Connect:Direct Windows on Passport Advantage will soon be updated with 6.2.0.1. If version 6.2.0.0 is used, updating it will involve un-installation followed by re-installation of the newer version.
