upgrading backup exec

Hello,

We are in the process of upgrading our back up exec from 2010 R3 to 2012. 

Will I be able to install the new version over the old one? Will this cause any problems? 

Can i isntall them side by side and then  uninstall the old one?

Will my backup jobs transfer over? or will I have to set them up again? if i need to set them up again, i am hoping that i can keep the old install in the meantime so we don't lose any backups. 

 

Thanks for the help.

The info was in the install guide at the end. My jobs should copy over and it will migrate to the new version. Having two copies without the proper licensing isn't allowed.
