Issue with Traveler 9.0.1.14 regarding invitations

 23 September 2016 13:27:17

One of my customer ran into this issue with 9.0.1.14. 
When you tentative accept a meeting on your mobile device and accept it completely afterwards that change is not updated on the senders invitation. 
The tentative accept remains as the status. 

We have two PMRs and there is a APAR -> LO9030. 

If you did not update your Traveler Servers yet I would stay on 9.0.1.13 which is the first iOS 10 supported release and wait for the fix.

SSL Session Data Length Error

 11 April 2016 09:40:42

After upgrading your Domino Server to 9.0.1 FP5 IF1 you may notice more or less often an error on the console:

New SSL session data length of 103 bytes is larger than the
current size of 100 bytes.

IBM published an APAR Request about this issue a few days ago:

Error description
                Since 9.0.1Fp5IF1, the defaults SSL SESSION SIZE is causing the
                following warning to be thrown more often.
               
                   New SSL session data length of 103 bytes is larger than the
                current size of 100 bytes.
               
                Default size may be to small for generall SSL and is causing
                the warning
                

Local fix
                Set SSL_SESSION_SIZE ini to a high value hence extending the
                default

To get rid of this messages set SSL_SESSION_SIZE in your notes.ini to 1024 bytes for example:

SSL_SESSION_SIZE=1024
