Julius Schwarzweller wrote a blog post with a collection of links to CR3 for IBM Connections 5.0 this week. A official update document with new features is missing.

I installed it today (without CCM) and the first new feature i found is “sharing folders” with Communities:

As shown in the screenshot only public folders can be added to community files widget.

From files application you can still share a folder with people, groups and communities (but then the folder will be public available too):

During a migration from Cognos Metrics to Elasticsearch Metrics, I had some issues with the index. So I wanted to create a backup of the already migrated data and start over from scratch.

The official documentation has an article on the topic: Backing up and restoring data for Elasticsearch-based components , but I had to slightly adjust the commands to get a successful snapshot.
