IBM FHIR Server 4.8.2

This version of the IBM FHIR Server supports HL7 FHIR Specification version v4.0.1.

This release contains select fixes on top of 4.8.1.

Fixed

• Concurrent updates to the same resource can result in lost updates
  • This fix includes updates to the stored procedures for both PostgreSQL and IBM Db2. See migration considerations for information on deploying these updates.
• Patient/$everything without a patientId results in a Null response.
• Erase operation is repeated many times in the CapabilityStatement

Deprecated

• The fhir-server-distribution.zip name (deprecated in 4.8.0)

Migration Considerations

To migrate from a prior version of the IBM FHIR Server to version 4.8.2:

1. Stop the server (or otherwise prevent write requests).
2. Optional: Perform a database back up.
3. Run the fhir-persistence-schema-4.8.2-cli.jar --update-schema command. If using a non-admin user (recommended), also perform the --grant-to action.
4. Deploy the new server.

If upgrading from a version prior to 4.8.1, be sure to review the applicable migration considerations:

• 4.8.1 migration considerations

Note: for schema migrations, only the latest version of the fhir-persistence-schema tool must be run.
