Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE Rob, At my previous location I did the 5.1.2 to 7.0.1px upgrade. What I discovered along the way was you may need to install more of the intermediate upgrades along the way. And don't forget to install the email engine along the way also. For example: upgrade to the lasted ARS 6.3 Server/email/admin/user, then install the first 7.0x version of Server/email/admin/user then, install the patchs for Server/email/admin/user along the way until you get to the latest 7.0.1p3 (soon to be 7.1). Although BMC keeps stating the latest version is cumulative. It may be, but the various installers look for specific install paths and forms from earlier intermediate installs. I regularly had to go back to an earlier patch and do the the next patch instead of going directly to the latest. Same rule applied to 5.1.2x to 6.3x. When I skipped the email install thinking I could just do the latest one once I got to 7.0.1x, it took a while to undo what the installer couldn't complete because it couldn't complete normally. Hope this helps, Scott. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Broyles Robert K Mr CTR USAF 96 CS/SCCE Sent: Wednesday, July 11, 2007 9:02 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: ARS Upgrade from 5.1.2 to 7.0.1 via 6.3 Do the same incompatabilities exist with 5.1.2 clients to 7.0.1 server P#? While talking with a senior developer, I thought that upgrading the clients first and then the server could help. I havent' done to much on 7.x yet. Does anyone have any issues with that approach? Our environment is windows server 2003 standard edition sp2, SQL server 2000 sp4, ARS 6.3 p21.
