I have AS 9.0 running with 9.0 agents on my comnputers. Can I upgrade my backup server to 11.5 and leave the agents at 9.0. Will everything, including the system state, backup and restore?

Thanks,
Michael
 
Yes, for best results, ensure that the 9.x agents are patched up to the latest 9.x service pack level.
 
However it should be temporary while in the transition to completing the 11.5 upgrade.

Of course if the target system OS and applications are never updated then there is little need to update the client agent. However that is rarely the case, as a rule Windows systems are constantly being updated. For that reason it is not recommended to stay with a backup client agent that has not been updated in years and it is recommended to upgrade all the client agents to 11.5.
