Point
In the version level of the AdvancedCopy Manager, there are conditions for the combination of manager and agent. Upgrade your version, in order to fulfill the combination that is described in "Notes on Combining Versions and Levels" of the Release Notes.
If Storage Cruiser and AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module are both installed on the same server, when upgrading, both Storage Cruiser and AdvancedCopy Manager Copy Control Module are upgraded at the same time. Therefore, perform backups of the previous versions before starting the upgrade.
It is possible to perform an Upgrade Installation with existing Advanced Copy and Remote Advanced Copy sessions. Regardless of whether there are Advanced Copy sessions or not, the upgrade procedure is the same.
