Hi,
I can understand than mixing 7.4.4 version with 7.5.1 is not an
issue. But mixing (Networker 7.4.4 x32 bits with Networker 7.4.4 x64
bits) or (Networker 7.5.1 x32 bits with Networker 7.5.1 x64 bits)
can work ? In my environment, I can use a master in a 64 bits
environment, but I can't migrate all my storagenodes with 64 bits
mode.
The thing to remember is the 32-bit vs 64-bit component is just
another different platform for NetWorker.
NetWorker has supported multiple operating system types and platforms
for different servers and storage nodes for a long time. (Basically
I'm struggling to remember when storage nodes were introduced and
whether there were any initial restrictions.)
It's quite common to have storage nodes that differ in their platform
from the server. For instance, two common configurations I've dealt
with over the years involve either having a Windows server and
multiple Unix storage nodes, and the reverse. Using 32-bit and 64-bit
Windows in the same environment is really no different from using any
other combination of platforms.
Cheers,
Preston.
