Important End of Life Notices

• Frontend servers using SWA 11.0 and higher and back end servers using Scalix 10 have ceased to work together on December 31st, 2008. If you plan to continue a frontend/backend server setup using the configuration after this date, you will need to upgrade all your Scalix 10 servers to Scalix 11 as mixed configurations will no longer be supported.

Scalix 11.4 is the last release of Scalix to provide support for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SLES 9). We recommend that you upgrade to SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SLES 10) to prepare for the release and upgrade to Scalix 11.5.

Scalix 11.5 will be the last release of Scalix to provide support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (RHEL 4) and CentOS 4. We recommend that you upgrade to Red hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL 5) or CentOS 5 to prepare for the upgrade to future releases of Scalix.

Scalix is planning to freeze development of Scalix Connect for Outlook for Outlook versions 9 (Outlook 2000) and 10 (Outlook XP/2002) in Scalix 11.5. We recommend that you consider upgrading to Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007. Note that we will continue to provide support on the basis of a frozen connector version, however, no new functionality in Scalix Connect will be made available for these platforms.

Upgrade Notices

Please read the following notes very carefully, as some specific actions might be required as you upgrade from earlier versions of Scalix.

Upgrading from any previous version

If you are upgrading from a previous version of Scalix, there are several changes of which you should be aware:

• Before beginning any upgrades, check your license key. If you are upgrading to or from a Small Business Edition (SBE), Enterprise Edition (EE) or Hosting Edition (HE) installation, you need to have a valid and current license key with a "Last Valid Issue Date" (LVID) on or after 31 July 2009 (2009-07-31) to use Scalix 11.4.5. If you continue installation after the respective warning and the license is not valid, your installation will downgrade to Community Edition. To check the LVID of your license, use the Scalix Management Console or the sxlicense command. To extend your upgrade subscription or get a new license key, please contact Scalix Sales.
• It is supported to run Outlook with an older Scalix Connector version against a newer server, e.g. you can run Scalix Connect for Outlook 11.3 against a Scalix 11.4.5 server. It is not supported to run Outlook with a newer Scalix Connector version against an older server, e.g. you cannot run Scalix Connect for Outlook 11.4.5 against a Scalix 11.3 server. You must always upgrade all your servers first before upgrading Scalix Connect for Outlook.

Upgrading from a previous version of Scalix 11.4 or earlier

Please note the following:

• If you are using omldapsync to manage Scalix users and groups through an external directory:
  

• Since version 11.4.2 Scalix comes with an updated version of Java, Sun Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Patch 16 (JRE 1.5.0_16)  while versions of Scalix 11 up until Scalix 11.0.4 used Sun Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Patch 6 (JRE 1.5.0_06), Scalix 11.1/11.2 use Sun Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Patch 11 (JRE 1.5.0_11) and until Scalix 11.4.1 use Sun Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0 Patch 13 (JRE 1.5.0_13). The Scalix Tomcat installation is updated automatically to use the new Java version. However, any existing sync agreements for omldapsync, stored in /var/opt/scalix/<instance>/s/ldapsync/<sync_agreement_name>/sync.cfg, need to be updated manually to reflect the new version, e.g. the following change will need to be done in all config files:
  
  Change JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_06
  or JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_11
  or JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_13
  to JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_16
  

• If you are upgrading your Server to Scalix 11.4, 11.4.2 or later from any previous installation of Scalix 11 and if you have changed the SMTP Relay configuration in smtpd.cfg your changes will be saved in Osmtpd.cfg since Scalix 11.4 and 11.4.2 deliver a new version of smtpd.cfg. You need to manually integrate the changes you made into the new smtpd.cfg after finishing the upgrade.
  

• In 11.4.1 the auto upgrade binary has been renamed from SXInstallMgr.exe to SXAutoUpgrade.exe.
  

• Starting with 11.4.1 Proxy Folders no longer contribute to the size of a user's mailbox (Bug 17282), please refer to Proxy Folder Technical Bulletin for details.

• In Scalix 11.4.1 the default behavior when detecting the body of a mail has changed (Bug 17338). Before 11.4.1 lines containing only whitespace acted as separator between headers and body. Starting with 11.4.1 only empty lines are allowed as separators. This has been changed to comply to RFC2822. You can switch back to the old, pre 11.4.1 behavior by adding WHITESPACE_CRLF_IS_BREAK=TRUE in ~/sys/general.cfg and restarting the server. Please note that the old behavior violates RFC2822.

• If you are upgrading from 11.4.3 or earlier to 11.4.4 or later, it is recommended that you empty your IMAP caches by running the following command on your backend server. Please note that this command may only be run when nobody is signed on to the system (when the rci and IMAP services are off):
  

cd $(omrealpath "~/"); find user* -name imap-cache -exec rm -rf {} \;

• Starting with Scalix 11.4.3 regular VACUUM runs will be performed on the postgres database in order to decrease disk usage and query times (see Bug 14957). For postgres 7.4 through 8.0 this is implemented as a root crontab entry with an incremental run every midnight and a full run on Sunday 00:30. For postgres 8.1 and later configuration options in postgresql.conf are used. For more information please refer to:

• General: http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/postgresql/vol3/Theautovacuumdaemon.html
• Postgres 7.4 - 8.0: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/maintenance.html
  
• Postgres 8.1 and later: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/maintenance.html
  

• Also starting with 11.4.3 postgres' loglevel has been increased (see Bug 15294). In case you made any changes to postgresql.conf (found in ~/XX/postgres/data) these will be overwritten. The original will be backed up to postgresql.conf_saved.<YYYY-MM-DD>_<hh:mm:ss>.

• In 11.4.3 handling of public folders in Mailnode Hosting setups has changed (see Bug 18303). The "extra" company top folder will no longer be displayed, instead all folders will be shown directly under "Public Folders". If there are items (Mails, etc.) contained in the top folder, they will be moved to an automatically created subfolder with the same name. In case you have configured an e-mail address for the company top folder you will need to move this address to a different one, as the top folder is no longer visible in all clients (see Bug 18819).
  

• Scalix 11.4.3, Scalix 11.4.4 and Scalix 11.4.5 have improved Searching and Indexing in various ways. For some of these changes to become effective, it is recommended to re-index the Scalix Message Store at a convenient time. Old indexes should be dropped before creating a new one. This can be carried out using the sxmkindex command, which has a number of new options for this. Please see the man page for details. Note that re-indexing the whole message store can take significant time and should be run off-hours.

Upgrading from Scalix 11.3 or earlier

• Starting with Scalix 11.4 tomcat will now listen on port 8080 (see Bug 17402). If you have any other services using this port you will need to configure them to listen on another port.
• If you are upgrading Scalix Connect for Outlook to version 11.4.4 from any previous version of Scalix Connect for Outlook 11, there are several things to be aware of:
  
• When upgrading from Scalix 11.0.0 you should create new profiles for any clients using SmartCache to benefit from all fixes contained in Scalix 11.1
  
• When upgrading from Scalix 11.0.1, Scalix 11.0.2 or Scalix 11.0.2.1, you may need to create new profiles for some users using SmartCache to benefit from all fixes  in Scalix 11.4
• When upgrading from Scalix 11.0.3 or later, there is no need to recreate Outlook profiles or re-initialize the cache.
• On Windows Vista, Scalix Connect for Outlook 11.3 cannot be upgraded to 11.4 using Auto-Upgrade. You will have to manually install the new version of Scalix Connect or use a Windows software management tool to deploy the new version. Auto-Upgrade from Scalix Connect for Outlook 11.4 to future versions will work.

Upgrading from Scalix 11.2 or earlier

If you are upgrading your server to from a version of Scalix 11.2 or earlier, there are a number of new packages supporting Scalix Server:

• scalix-libical - this replaces libical as shipped with earlier versions of Scalix and must be selected in the installer when installing or upgrading the scalix-server package.
• scalix-iconv-extras - this is an optional install that adds additional character set for Japanese character sets to the os-supplied iconv character set conversion library. It improves Scalix I18N character set support and Scalix recommends installing this on all systems running scalix-server.
• scalix-chardet - this is software derived from the Mozilla Universal Character Set Detection library. It is used for automatically detecting character sets in incoming email messages with incomplete or incorrect MIME headers. As of Scalix 11.3, scalix-server depends on this library and it must be selected in the installer when installing or upgrading the scalix-server package.

If you are using Scalix Community Edition, please note that the number of free Premium User licenses has changed from 25 to 10 between Scalix 11.2 and Scalix 11.3.

• If you have more than 10 Premium Users configured, the installer will detect this and not allow you to upgrade. You will need to convert some of your Premium Users to Standard Users before continuing with the upgrade.
• If you need more than 10 premium users, you will need to upgrade your Scalix installation to Small Business Edition or Enterprise Edition. Please contact Scalix Sales for details.

Upgrading from Scalix 10 or earlier

If you are upgrading from any version of Scalix 10, please be aware of these additional items:

• You can directly upgrade from Scalix 10 to any version of Scalix 11, including Scalix 11.4.5.
• When upgrading from Scalix 10.x to any version of Scalix 11, make sure your message store is in a consistent state before you begin the upgrade. We recommend running the omscan -Aafvx command to verify and fix pre-existing message store issues. Due to a necessary message store format upgrade when upgrading to Scalix 11, data corruption can occur when trying to do this on a message store with pre-existing consistency issues.
  
• We recommend you upgrade all components at the same time if possible. If you can't do all systems at once, follow these rules:
  • You can run Outlook with a Scalix 10.0.x MAPI connector against a Scalix 11 server.
  • You must not run Outlook with a Scalix 11 MAPI connector against a Scalix 10 server. This combination can cause invalid data in the message store and interoperability issues.
  • You cannot run a Scalix 11 SWA web server against a Scalix 10 server. You cannot run a Scalix 10 SWA web server against a Scalix 11 server. If you need to operate both Scalix 10 and Scalix 11 servers at the same time, you will need to setup separate SWA web servers.
  • You can use a Scalix 11 Management server to manage a server installed with Scalix 10. You cannot use a Scalix 10 Management server to manage a server installed with Scalix 11.
• After upgrading to any version of Scalix 11 from Scalix 10 or earlier, you cannot downgrade to a previous version because of permanent changes to the structure of the message store.
• Scalix 11 changes the file system layout significantly from previous versions. If you have customizations stored in any files under the Scalix home directory (/var/opt/scalix), back them up before upgrading. In addition, any custom scripts with hard-coded references to /var/opt/scalix (such as ommaint or ombackup) must be updated because they point to a file structure that has been changed. For more on this issue, see the workaround for updating custom scripts. If you have any filesystems mounted below /var/opt/scalix (e.g. separate mountpoints for tmp and/or temp), you will need to unmount these before the upgrade. Otherwise, the upgrade will fail.
• The location of all files has changed in this release from /var/opt/scalix (aka ~) to /var/opt/scalix/<nn> which will be referred to as <instance>. The meaning of ~ for Scalix 11 changes to be the directory <instance>/s. In addition, some tomcat logfiles have been renamed.
• Scalix 11 requires the package sendmail-cf as an additional prerequisite, which should be installed manually before starting the installer. If not, the installer will detect the missing package.
• Scalix 11 requires slightly more disk space than its predecessors because it adds a new header cache database and a full text index. So before upgrade, check the size of the message store and add another 5% to 10% to the amount of disk space required.
• Scalix 11 provides new full-text indexed search capability, used by both Outlook and Scalix Web Access. After the upgrade, the index must be initialized. When run for the first time, this is a time-consuming process and may take days for a large message store. During this time, the system will experience higher load and performance impacts. Also, search functionality is not fully available until the index is created. You can control the pace at which the index is created and schedule resources as required. See the sxmkindex man page for further information. The Scalix installer will ask you at the end of an upgrade install, if it should kick-off creation of the index. For large systems, you might want to decline this and schedule the index creation manually.
• Please also check the Scalix 11 Upgrade FAQ on the Scalix Wiki.

Upgrading from Scalix 9.x or earlier

If you are upgrading from any version of Scalix 8 or Scalix 9, please be aware of these additional items:

• Direct upgrade from versions of Scalix prior to Scalix 10 is not supported. You must first upgrade to Scalix 10, then upgrade again to Scalix 11.

  Note: Fedora 9 and OpenSuSE 11 are supported for evaluation purposes and Community Edition use only; these are generally less suitable for production environments than their "enterprise" counterparts due to their frequent updates and short release cycles
  
  Note: An unsupported Community Edition package for Debian-based Linux distributions is also available.
  
  ¹⁾ Scalix 11.4 will be the last release to support SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9. It is recommended that you upgrade your server to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10.
  
  
• Scalix Connect for Outlook: The following combinations of Windows and Outlook are supported¹⁾:
  
  

  Component	Outlook version
  2000 Pro SP4	2000 SP4, 2002 SP3 and 2003 SP3

  XP 64 Bit SP2	2003 SP3 and 2007 SP2
  Vista 32 Bit SP2	2000 SP4, 2002 SP3, 2003 SP3, 2007 SP2
  Vista 64 Bit SP2	2003 SP3 and 2007 SP2

  
  
  ¹⁾ Other combinations of Service Packs may work also but are not part of our QA process.
  
  
• Scalix Web Access and Scalix Management Console: IE 7 and IE 8 on Windows; Firefox 3.0.13 and 3.5.2 on Windows, Mac OS/X or Linux. Other browsers based on the IE and Gecko engines may work.
• Scalix Connect for Evolution: Evolution 2.6, 2.8, 2.12, and 2.22. Depending on the distribution you choose you may need to build this package from source, others include it in binary form.
  

System Requirements

Please check the Scalix Installation guide for current minimum system requirements.

Alert

Note that the choice of storage environments will have a major influence on performance of your Scalix system. Scalix as an application is largely I/O-bound, using variable, small-blocksize random read/write synchronous file I/O. Also note that Scalix does not support putting a Scalix Message Store on a NFS- or SMB-based storage device such as a NAS Filer. Performance issues and/or Message Store corruption can occur. This is true for all Linux distributions using Linux 2.6.x kernels as the NFS client software in these kernels have known issues with file locking operations, which Scalix heavily relies on. We suggest putting the Scalix message store on a Hardware RAID Array, using RAID 1+0 for best performance. The use of RAID 5 will result in substantially worse performance due to the nature of Scalix Disk I/O patterns (small, synchronous random writes) and is not recommended. In larger installations, we do recommend using iSCSI- or FibreChannel-based SAN storage. We also recommend the use of battery-backed write cache on the RAID controller where available

Packaging

The Scalix 11.4.5 Release consists of a self-extracting shell archives for Linux and a separate ZIP file download for the Windows components.

The Components in the package and their respective version numbers are as follows:

* Text extractors allow the indexing of binary Microsoft Office (Word, Excel and PowerPoint) and PDF documents. They are only available as part of Scalix Small Business Edition (SBE), Enterprise Edition (EE) or Hosting Edition (HE)
** For Scalix Community Edition downloads, Scalix Connect for Outlook (MAPI) is a separate ZIP-file download.
*** The Scalix Active Directory Extensions are only available as part of Scalix Small Business Edition (SBE), Enterprise Edition (EE) or Hosting Edition (HE)
