Re: [Networker] Using a NW 7.6.2 client with a 7.5.2 server?

The new NetWorker 7.6SP2 Client is backward compatible to NetWorker 7.5 
servers, here is the support statement in the Administration Guide. 

"To support Windows Disaster Recovery on a NetWorker client, the minimum 
required NetWorker server and NMC Console versions are 7.5 SP3 and 7.6 SP1."

Subject: [Networker] Using a NW 7.6.2 client with a 7.5.2 server?

I have a new client to install today, Win 2008 R2. My server and snodes are all 
at 7.5.2, and will, for at least a few weeks more. (see other msg). But I 
really want to install 7.6.2 on this new client now, rather than put 7.5.2 on 
there (with it's limited support for Win2008 R2), and then upgrade later.

While I won't get the full benefits of 7.6.2 support for Win2008 R2, since the 
server isn't 7.6.2 yet, will it be any worse than running 7.5.2? It will still 
work, at least to same levels as 7.5.2, right? And I won't have to upgrade this 
client in a few weeks ...
