  • 1.  Site Server 7.1 and DS 6.9 Question

    Posted Jan 23, 2012 06:57 PM

    Hi,

    We are migrating from version 6 to version 7.1. In one of our remote sites we have a DS 6.9 Server and I want to know if we can use this server as a Site Server 7.1 (Package and Task only).

    The DS 6.9 its only been used as PXE, no client computers with the DS Agent report to this server.

     

    Regards,

    Ruben

    If it's a DS you might want to remove the DS Web Console if it's installed as that might interfere with the Site Server Web Services.

    Hi Ruben

    We've have configured all our existing 6.9 deployment servers as site servers as part of our migration to 7.1.  As long as your servers meet the minimum requirements(IIS, .NET etc) it should work.  We havent been using the DS Web Console so cannot comment if that will cause any issue.

    We've installed Package, OOB & Task site services but haven't yet rolled out the deployment solution site server componenents yet though.  I'm assuming the PXE services included in the deployment site services will conflict with the existing 6.9 services therefore we wont be rolling out the deployment site servers until we have migrated all our images etc onto 7.1 and are ready to replace the DS 6.9 PXE service with the 7.1 PXE service.

     

    Cheers
