Rebecca, I have manually installed two versions on the same computer. We have not setup to SMS to install 2 different versions for deployment.
We are looking at changing our SMS package to deploy the 7.x client before we actually move to the 7.x server so that all our users are up to date before the upgrade. Since the 7.x client is backward compatible, I'm not sure why you would want to deploy 2 different versions at the same time. Is this a recommendation by someone?

Hi all, Because we're going to be running two instances (6.3 and 7) of Remedy in parallel for a while, we want to deploy the two versions and have them operate independently. I know that there are many considerations we need to be aware of, but I want to be sure we cover all of them. BMC's telling me that installing two versions of the client tools on one machine isn't supported, but I'm fairly confident it can be done. First of all, I believe that although you specify the installer to run to a separate and distinct directory, the Registry keys will still only reference one key - is there any way around that? I want to be sure that for one user name, the Home directory is read separately - is this possible? Any advice, suggestions, instructions, etc. are most welcome!
