Sametime Gateway issues
Sametime Gateway
Silent install on i5/OS produces incomplete installation log
During the installation of the Sametime Gateway the installer will call several QSHELL commands as part
of the installation procedure. Typically the results of running these commands are written to the
installation log. However, when an installation is performed using a response file and the -silent mode,
the results of running the QSHELL commands are not written to the log, resulting in an incomplete record
of what occurred during the installation.

Emoticons convert to text symbols using Connect and UIM clients
Emoticons can be sent and received between UIM and UIM clients, but are converted to text symbols
when they are sent from a UIM client to a Sametime Connect client. If a user sends text symbols by
means of a Sametime Connect client, then the text symbols are converted to emoticons.
Sametime Gateway
External user does not receive status messages
If the "user consent" framework is enabled on a Sametime server, external users will not receive status
messages about the Sametime user with whom they are chatting. Please see "Internal user consent for
external users" in the Configuration section of these release notes for more information on the user
consent framework policy.

Known issues with Sametime Connect and Yahoo ! Messenger
Sametime does not support offline messages. As a result, when a Sametime user chats with a Yahoo!
user and the Yahoo! user goes offline, the Sametime user can continue chatting and is not notified that
the message can only be delivered when the Yahoo! user is online.

Offline messages, Do Not Disturb status not handled correctly
When an internal user exchanges Instant Messages with an external user, and the external user's chat
status changes to "Do Not Disturb", the typing area will be greyed out, and typing will be disabled. When
working with the Sametime Connect Client and the external user changes their chat status back to
"Active", the typing area will still be greyed out.
Workaround
z The internal user should open a new chat window to the external user.
z Upgrade to the UIM client.
