Getting Vertica 7.1.1-9?

[Julie]

When I download and install the latest RPM for RedHat from the Vertica webite, I get this file:

vertica-7.1.1-0.x86_64.RHEL5.rpm

And when I install it, this is the version:

Code: Select all

dbadmin=> select version();
              version
------------------------------------
 Vertica Analytic Database v7.1.1-0
(1 row)

Shouldn't it be v7.1.1-9?

Ok, thanks, Jim. I guess I've never had to download a hot fix. I'll just wait for 7.1.2
