  • 1.  Migration of SEP 11.x to SEP 12.1 RU2

    Posted Nov 25, 2012 12:15 AM

    Hi All,

        Does anyone here experience upgrading SEP 11.x to SEP 12.1 RU2? Although I've read it in the new features of SEP 12.1 RU2, I want confirmation if it is trully effective without passing on the migration path in the previous versions, Please confirmed, so I can proceed upgrading without hesitation. Thanks. ^^,

    the upgrade should have been SEPM 12.1 Ru1 them to Ru1 MP1.

    Since Ru2 is available, you may try in UAT
