the features and functionality previously provided in the IBM Optim™ Development

Installation Manager to
upgrade past versions of IBM Data
Studio, IBM Optim Development Studio, or IBM Optim Database
Administration to the
Data Studio client Version
4.1.
To upgrade from past versions of IBM Data
Studio, IBM Optim Development Studio, or IBM Optim Database
Administration, you can choose from the following options:

4.1 into a new package group:
- If you choose to install the Data Studio client into
a new package group, any existing products that are installed on your
computer are unaffected.
Restriction: Starting with
the IBM Data Studio client Version
4.1, the product base
is Eclipse 4.2. Because products that are based on earlier version
of Eclipse are not compatible with products that are based on Eclipse
4.2, you cannot use the
Update wizard to update
instances of
the IBM Data Studio client Version
3.2 and earlier. You must
install
the IBM Data Studio client Version
4.1 into a new package
group or an existing package group that contains other compatible
products. For information about other compatible products, see
Compatibility with other products.
