    Hi,

    My Client want us to upgrade SEP Manager and Clients to Mr4Mp2.
    Is this the latest version ?
    What is the best way to upgrade Manager and Clients workstations.
    Without re-installing anything.

     The latest version available is MR5 11.0.5002.333.
     
    I would suggest you to migrate directly to MR5.
     
    First you need to upgrade SEP Manager then assign the Mr5 packages to the groups and the clients will automatically upgrade.
     
    However if you want to migrate to Mr4Mp2 
    then you can do that as well in the same way however 
     
    First you will have to migrate to MR4 then again you will have to migrate to MR4Mp2 as per best practises.
     
    Follow the document below on how to migrate to MR5 and how to migrate to Mr4MP2

    Currently we have Mr4 installed so for now we will upgrade to MR4MP2. I will suggest my client that to upgrade directly to MR5. If ye approves we will migrate to MR5 or we will migrate to Mr4Mp2 for now .

    Thanks again Vikram for the link and information.
