Hi,
We have a customer who has VBR V12 running on a Windows 2016 server. We will replace this server by a new Windows 2025 server and migrate VBR to this new server. Is it possible to install V13 on the new server and use the configuration backup from the V12 server or should both VBR versions be the same on the old and new server?

Re: Restore configuration backup from v12 to v13
Hi I_am_I,
It depends.
For the same database engine (MSSQL to MSSQL or PostgreSQL to PostgreSQL), the VBR build of the target backup server can be the same or higher.
However, if you want to switch the configuration database engine (e.g. MSSQL to PostgreSQL), both backup servers must be on the exact same version.
Best,
Fabian
