Hello all,

Scuz my english.

does someone know f I can manage 2014 mms with a BackupExec 15 CASO.

I have a lot of servers. Some with backupexec 2012, others with backupexec 2014. I'm planing to install a 2014 or a 15 CASO. I just want to know if I can manage different version of backupexec with 15 or 2014 CASO or if I have to upgrade all my servers before joining 2014/15 CASO.

 

I'm looking for any advice.

Yes, you can but we recommend to upgrade as soon as possible. If installing BE 15 CAS remember this security feature only gets activated when all MBES are updated to BE 15 https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000023998

You cannot add lower version Backup Exec servers to higher version CAS servers, you can ony upgrade the CAS when all the servers are already setup as members and then can choose to do a rolling upgrade as needed after that

 

This means you will have to build a 2014 server as a CAS add all the members and then upgrade it to BE 15.

Thanks for all your advices. I'll upgrade all my servers before joining 15 CASO.
