+7Hello
I have CS in 11.30.23 and MA in 11.30.52 (they both physical servers - windows 2012R2)
and I want to upgrade to 11.32 version
and the SQL you can see in the image that I attach below:
Can I do the upgrade directly ?
or maybe I need to upgrade the windows from 2012R2 to windows 2016?
Thank you very much :)

No, you are running SQL 2016 which is compatabile with FR32 so you won’t be prompted. We have a workflow you can run to upgrade the Commserve SQL Engine.

Windows 2012 is no longer supported in 11.32 as the OS for Commserve.
https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/commserve_server_system_requirements_windows_02.html
Even if it was… there is no reason for leaving the most important part of the cell on unsupported OS. OS update is more than recommended here.
+7Hello
I know - so I need to upgrade to windows 2016 and then upgrade the CS to 11.32 ?
Thanks !
I would say yes - plan either the OS upgrade or hardware refresh. Sometimes the second option is less time consuming and you have 3 in 1: OS, SQL and CV updated.
+7OK , but if I will upgrade the OS and after that I will upgrade the CS, the SQL will update automatically in the CS upgrade ?
