Veritas Sort

Hello,

Before we want to upgrade master server from version 8.0 to 8.3 , checking with Veritas SORT.

In picture mean we must be upgrade the Windows OS refer Software Compability List.

Or we must be upgrade both (Windows OS and CPU).

Thank You

Windows Server 2008 R2

Here is the pdf version of NBU Conpatibility list: https://www.veritas.com/content/support/en_US/doc/NB_80_OSSCL

CPU architecture x86-64 is required for all supported Windows versions.

I doubt that an in-place OS upgrade will be possible. Maybe best if you have a new server available with Windows 2016 or 2019.

    When Microsoft drops support for an OS, then Veritas will also drop support.
