    Hello, 

    I am trying to upgrade SEPM 12.X on Windows 2008 32-bit to SEPM 14.X on a new server running Windows 2016. Can someone provide how-to please? 

     

    Thanks!

    You'll need to follow one of the scenario's listed here:

    Is the hostname/IP changing?

    Hello, Brian. 

     

    Yes, the hostname and IP will be different. 

    Thank you.

    Review scenario #3 to see what works best for you.

    Thank you! I believe option #3 is the best option for us. Now, I am installing 14 on the new server and I am at the point where I have to select the type of configuration for the new server. Which one should I select? Default, Custom, or Recovery? 

    Thanks for your help!!!!!

    I selected the Recovery option, but I am getting stuck on the Replication process. See error message below.

    SEPMs need to be at the same version in order to replicate.

    Ok... So what should I do on my case? As I mentioned on my initial post, I am trying to upgrade from 12.X to 14.X. 

     

    Thank you.

    Whether you choose replication or DR, the new SEPM needs to be at the same version. Once you perform the migration over then you can upgrade it.
