Restore server using SSR2011 disk for SSR2013 backups

Hi All,


Can i use SSR 2011 disk to restore my server from backup which i have taken using SSR2013 different version on Windows Server 2008 R2?


And same SSR2011 recovery disk i want use to restore Windows 2012 R2 backup?


Reason: SSR2013 is installed on both Windows OS 2008 R2 and 2012 R2 but dont have recovery disk.


Regards,


Agha

    That MAY work but it is not officially supported.

    No. Windows 2012 R2 was never supported with SSR 2011. Check the SCL for details: http://www.veritas.com/docs/000013002

      Thanks.

      i tried SSR2011 disk for windows 2008 R2 it works.

      I downloaded SSR 2013 R2 trial and created recovery disk for windows 2012 R2 so it will work.

      do i need new license for SSR 2013 R2 or upgrade license of 2013?
