  • 1.  Another Windows Seven and RU5 Question

    Posted Feb 25, 2010 09:38 AM
    Hi,

    Sorry if the issue has already been asked, but I search before posting without finding the solution. 

    I 'm trying to install some Win7 clients on my SEP11MR4 SEPM.
    Here is what I did? Export a RU5 (version 11.0.5002.0) package from the MR4 console. My Win XP clients are all 11.0.4202.75 (MR4MP2 I suppose).
    I copied the SEP client directory on the Win 7 client, run lusetup.exe, reboot, then installed successfully the SEP.MSI

    Everything seems to be OK, def updating, policies, ...
    So please, what can be the consequences of having to different versions, even some RU5 WIN7 clients on my MR4 SEPM ?
    Because everything is working fine and I would prefer not to upgrade SEPM in RU for ther moment, untill the full migration begins....

    Wont be any problem....MR4 can manage clients, however good to upgrade as soon as possible.
    I have the same setup without any problem from 2 months.

     It will work fine..But remember this is not a long term solution. you might find some vague and erroneous logs for these clients.
