Managing clients from an old BESR 8 server

Hi,

 

We have an SSR 2013R3 Management console server and an old server running BESR 8.

 

Is it possible to take over management of the BESR 8 clients with the SSR 2013 management console or do I need to do an uninstall of BESR 8 and install of SSR?

Those old BESR 8 clients are not supported with the SSR Management Solution. What version (2013 or 2013 R2) of SSR-MS are you using?

The issue is our old BESR 8 management server is on its last legs, but its still backing up a number of servers that it is hard to get downtime on.  Ideally I'd like to move management of the servers to the SSR 2013 R2 Management console server so that I can decommission the old BESR 8 server, still backup these annoying servers and update the client on them when I get a chance.

We only support client versions back to 2011 for the R2 version of the Management Solution.

Sorry, but your only option is to upgrade these clients to SSR (ideally latest - 2013 R2).
