upgrading from EV10 to EV12

Hi 

I am currently running EV10 version 10.0.0.1316 on  2 Windows Server 2008r2 Servers, with SQL 2005 running on a 3rd  Windows Server 2008r2

Can anyone recommend an upgrade path to get to EV12, all 3 Servers to go to Windows Server 2012r2 with SQL 2014 on 1 of them

Thanks

Lois

first, review and familiarize yourself with the EV compatibility guide so you know what versions of the different components work together.

at a high level:

1. move your EV 10 servers to new Windows 2012 R2 servers following: http://www.veritas.com/docs/000081331

2. EV 11 is not compatible with SQL 2005 so before you can upgrade from EV 10 to EV 11 you'll need to upgrade SQL. SQL 2008 R2 is probably the easiest since it'll only be temporary.

3. upgrade to EV 11

4. upgrade/move the databases your new SQL 2014 server on Windows 2012 R2

5. upgrade to EV 12

Hi

Just had another thought

Currently we run Exchange 2007 sp3 RU18

Do i need to upgrade my Exchange to 2013 or higher before I upgrade EV to v12.

Also I have a few clients running Outlook 2007. Is that supported in EV12 and Exchange 2013

Thanks

EV12 does not support Exchange 2007 and Outook 2007.

Exchange 2010 SP1 and above,  Outlook 2010 and above are supported by EV12.
