Hi folks,
We’re planning on performing a hardware refresh for a CommServe on a Windows Server 2012 box, to a 2019 box AND a software version upgrade from FR 11.24 to 2022E. On the current CommServe, we have a SQL Server 2014 SP3 installed and it’s not compatible both with Windows Server 2019 AND platform release 2022E. We were thinking we could first make a clean install of 2022E on the Windows Server 2019 WITH the SQL Server 2019 database and perform a DR backup restore afterwards.
So, the question is: can a DR backup be restored on a different version of the SQL Server database? In our case from SQL Server 2014 SP3 to SQL Server 2019. If not, what would you suggest we do in this situation?
Thanks for your time!
