Upgrading from SEPM 11.7 MP2 to SEPM 12.1

Created: 24 Aug 2012 | Updated: 24 Aug 2012 | 8 comments

HI All,

Any one had a luck in Upgrading SEPM 11.7 MP2 to SEPM 12.1, since symantec says its not a supported upgrade path, but looking for someone who had tried this successfully. Although Symantec everytime claims that this will be resolved in next release ,which is never released (Seen in Many products).

Symantec: Is there an ETA for this ?

Thanks,

Upgrading from SEPM 11.7 MP2 to SEPM 12.1 - Comment:24 Aug 2012 : Link

Migrations from SEPM RU7 MP2 to all current versions of SEPM 12.1 are not supported. Future releases of SEPM 12.1 will contain the migration code necessary to update the newer database schema used by RU7 MP2.

Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) clients can be migrated from RU7 MP2 to SEP 12.1, however, SEP 11 RU7 MP2 managers cannot manage SEP 12.1 clients
