We are planning an Commvault upgrade from FR11.24.xx to FR11.28.5X. We still have a lot of 2012 servers and SQL2012 servers. Wat would be better? Let the agent on win 2012 on FR11.24.9x, or upgrade the clients to 11.26.xx. Commvault 11.26.xx is the last Commvault version that supports Windwos 2012 and SQL2012.
If we use additional setting we could upgrade the client to FR11.26.xx
Thanks in advance!

Mmz yes I see it, odd that documentation does not line up for this client agent. Thanks for identifying this, hopefully documentation can be aligned properly.
In this case I would either:
Upgrade OS and SQL (preferred, but not always possible)
Edit: There is a conflicting message here though regarding the OS versions contains Windows 2012:
Important: The following operating systems are supported only for the following versions of Microsoft SQL Server. Microsoft has a known issue on Microsoft SQL server 2017 cumulative updates 19 and 20.Microsoft SQL Server 2017 cumulative update18or lower
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 cumulative update21and higher
Microsoft SQL Server 2019 cumulative update5and higher
Microsoft SQL Server 2022
Looking into this, hang on
Edit 2: Looking at deprecated functionality SQL 2012 is only mentioned in relation to the Commserve database engine, I don't see any other information which would indicate a non-supported setup when using Windows 2012 in combination with SQL 2012. These clients should be fine with 2022E / 11.28.x
