Hi,

In upgrading our Networker from v6.1.3 to v7.1.3, I was reminded by way
of the feature not being available that a Windows NT 4 server (yes I
know its old) cannot be a storage node, only a client.

We have one such Windows NT 4 server which is running Exchange 5.5, and
is a storage node (currently it only backs up data from itself).

While it will be replaced by the end of 2005 with Windows 2003 and
Exchange 2003, we are not quite there yet.  But we can wait no longer to
upgrade to Networker v7.x.

Is it possible to keep the NT 4 server running Networker 6.1.4 (which
would allow the NT 4 server to be a storage node) and have the Networker
server be v7.1.3?  Will this introduce problems with restores, the on-
line indexes, the media database, etc?


This should work, and should be a supported configuration, other than the fact that 6.1.x is now officially out of support.
