Backup Exec 15 In-Place OS upgrade from 2008r2 to 2012r2

[sfuoss]

Is an in-place OS upgrade supported on a BE 15 media server?

Physical server running 2008r2 standard, SAS single tape library

Can I upgrade to 2012r2?

Is this supported

[pkh · Accepted solution]

No problem. BE does not have a problem with an in-place OS upgrade and BE 15 supports Server 2012 R2

Prior to the OS upgrade, just stop all BE services and grab a copy of the Data & Catalog folders.
