RTC client 3.0.1 and 2.0.x under RTC3.0.1 server

Hi my client using RAD 8.0 and 7.5.x (Can not move to RAD8.0 for their system policy). As you know, RTC 3.0.1 support RAD8.0, RTC2.0 support RAD7.5.4 and RTC1.0 support RAD7.5 for the reason of it's Eclipse version.

Does RTC3.0.1 server support those old version of RTC clients? Or needs to establish each version of servers?

Thank you!

The RTC-3.0.1 server supports both RTC-3.0 and RTC-3.0.1 clients, but
does not support RTC-2.* or RTC-1.* clients.

Cheers,

Ok, it seems our client needs to be updated to make use of a version 3 server.
Is it ok to update our version 2 RTC clients to version 3 client in advance? Are there any issues with a version 3 RTC client talking with a version 2 server? Or do we need to coordinate client upgrades along with server upgrades?
I hesitate since the version 3 client upgrade file is several hundred meg and painfully slow on our network.

Hi Peter

You need to update the clients and server at the same time - your v3 clients will not work with the v2 server. There are work items to improve the situation in the future - but for the moment, you need to do the upgrade of server and client.

Also, note that you wouldn't "upgrade" your RTC-2.0 clients in this
case, but rather just have all your users install the RTC-3.0 clients in
addition to their RTC-2.0 clients. Once all your users have installed
the RTC-3.0 clients, you can upgrade your server to RTC-3.0.
Once the server upgrade is complete, your clients can just invoke their
RTC-3.0 clients.

Once all of the RTC servers used by a given user have been upgraded to
RTC-3.0, that user can free up some disk space by uninstalling their
RTC-2.0 client.
