Upgrading EV 9 to EV 11. Do I need to go to 10?

I am upgrading EV9 to EV11.  From what I have seen I need to upgrade to EV 10.

So migrate to EV 10

Then upgrade to EV 11.

What about the clients?  I have outlook 2010 clients.  Do I upgrade addins to 11 before I migrate?  Or upgrade then to 10.

 

Thanks

EV servers need to be upgraded in order and can't skip versions (like 9, to 10, to 11. can't do 9 to 11.) the outlook addins dont have this requirement.

About the clients: Check the Compatablity list.

EV client 9 is compatible with EV server 9 & 10.

EV client 10 is compatible with EV server 9 / 10 & 11

EV client 11 is compatible with EV server 10 & 11

So check your upgrade path before doing anything. Upgrading to EV client 10 is pretty safe as it is compatible with all the EV server versions you plan to use. When the server upgrade(s) are finished, I would suggest to upgrade to the EV 11 client aswell.

Went on vacation. I am testing EV 10 outlook extensions today and the rest of the week. I am looking for a doc on how to install EV 10 to prep for the move. I would like to make a design change, we current are on 9.0.5 single server, one server db and ev. Works ok but large PST migrating can be taxing. So with migration it will be ev server db server situation.

Upgraded and boy it was work.  On EV 10.  I had to move the EVSTorage dir. 

Likely to stay there for a while since HF3 work with our newer Exchange.  Maybe 11 late summer.
