Called client and explained the reason for the delay. Enormous
amount of PMR's currently opened and ongoing, impacting
unfortunately all, especially lower prior/sev 4/4.
There are two things this brings to mind. First, Ed Brill keeps saying that there have been fewer issues reported for R8 than previous releases. That being the case it's odd that both I and the four Domino admins I talk to almost daily, including Ninke, have all opened more PMR's for R8 than they did for any others. I'm sure Ed's statistics are more representative than my limited sample, but it's still hard for me to reconcile the official reports with what I see firsthand.
Second, why would one customer having a large number of PMR's open slow down resolution on all their PMR's? I didn't think IBM dedicated staff to resolving individual customers' problems. Even if they did that should speed things up, not slow it down. If they don't, why would the volume of open PMR's have any impact on resolution? Something seems to be broken besides Notes and Domino 8.x.
I have absolutely opened more PMR's for R8 than I have ever have in my whole working life with N&D.

Issues <> PMRs.
ReplyDeleteIt all depends on what your definition of issues is.
I've had to log at least a dozen PMR's with Lotus support over the last couple of months or so, but I'll have to say they've been excellent in every respect. Calling me back very quickly and always on the ball with a solution. Not sure whats going wrong when you call, but branch 227 is awesome.
