Re: Installing two versions of the WUT on one machine?
I have 6.3 and 7 clients installed on XP on seperate directories, and have no problems with it..

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.

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!

Re: Installing two versions of the WUT on one machine?
We do need to keep it separate, just because we script our applications, and we don't want users to have to worry about changing servers, odd home page behavior, etc. Most specifically, when I launch the 6.3 User Tool, I want to display a distinct server list, and when I launch 7 UT, I want to see a separate server list. Possible?

Re: Installing two versions of the WUT on one machine?
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?

Re: Installing two versions of the WUT on one machine?
Hi Rebecca, I'm using the 5.1.2, 6.3 and 7 WUT's all on one machine, each installed in its own home directory. This works great for me. Also, v7 is in fact support as a user tool to use against your 6.3 server (as opposed to a 5.1.2 server) so there is no actual need to install multiple versions. Of course, if you are an admin it might be nice to be able to test problems on both versions of the user tool.
