Veeam Agent 6.1.2.134 upgrade from old versions

Post by AlexLeadingEdge »

Hi Veeam Support!

Quick question, I'm pushing out Veeam Agent 6.1.2.134 using PDQ Connect and I've written this script:

Code: Select all

"VeeamAgentWindows_6.1.2.134.exe" /silent /accepteula /acceptthirdpartylicenses /acceptlicensingpolicy /acceptrequiredsoftware
md C:\Support\Veeam\Veeam_Agent_Windows_6.1.2.134\
"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Endpoint Backup\Veeam.EndPoint.Manager.exe" /createrecoverymediaiso /f:C:\Support\Veeam\Veeam_Agent_Windows_6.1.2.134\VeeamRecoveryMedia_%COMPUTERNAME%.iso
I have tested it and it is working.

What I want to know is, what is the oldest version of Veeam Agent I can upgrade straight to 6.1.2.134 without having to upgrade to an intermediate installer? I've encounted this issue in the past where I had to go from version 2 to version 5 by installing version 3 or version 4 first (I don't remember which one).

I've scanned our all of our workstations and found these old versions floating around:

4.0.1.2169
5.0.0.4301
5.0.3.4708
6.0.2.1090
6.1.0.349

Which ones won't upgrade straight to version 6.1.2.134 ?
