John, I can not say that I have tried it (Yet) .... but after doing a bit of reading...
Ref: What_s New_ BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.5.00-98415.pdf Pg: 14 " When running against a release 7.5.00, 7.1.00, or 7.0.01 AR System server, the release 7.5.00 Java API runs as pure Java. If the release 7.5.00 Java API needs to communicate with a pre-7.0.01 AR System server, it still uses the JNI layer. You can configure the Java API to never use the JNI layer, in which case it is unable to communicate with older servers. " So it sounds like .... The pure Java API that was released is backwards compatible up to and including v7.0.01. Any AR Server before that (AKA: v6.3 and older) still needs the JNI layer to fall back on. Which is apparently designed to work (supported?) too. However, given that v6.3 fell off the "supported version list" with the release of 7.5, I think BMC might have a way to claim that this new pure Java API is compatible with all supported versions. But maybe you have already read the marketing... and were looking for someone to validate your own experiences? -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....
