BE 12.5 SBS on Server2008R2

[user-2013]

One short question:

We decided to change our Server 2008sbs to a Server 2008R2. Can we use our Software BE 12.5 SBS on this OS? Or must i get a new version?

Thanks ..

Hi

Installing a full version of Backup Exec for Windows 12.5 as a media server on a Windows 2008 R2 Server is not supported.

Please check link below

Would suggest to install BE 2010 or higher version
