Remote agent upgrade?

I've upgraded our version 9 server to Backup Exec 10. Is there any upgrade needed on the remote agents? I saw no reference to it in the instructions.

Thanks

Found it under FAQ.

Q. Can Backup Exec 9.x agents or options be used with the Backup Exec 10.0 core software?

A. Backup Exec 9.x agent and option serial numbers will not work with Backup Exec 10.0. Customers will need to upgrade all agent and option serial numbers to the Backup Exec 10.0 version to work with the Backup Exec 10.0 core software.

Note: While Backup Exec 9.1 software components can interact with a Backup Exec 10.0 installation after the licensing requirement has been satisfied, it is recommended that they are upgraded to the same level as the Backup Exec core installation so that optimal performance is achieved.
