    It's scheduled for a future release, but not v9.0.

     Currently in Beta now - We can't give a precise date, but it's fairly soon.

    Ah ok thanks.

    Sorry about all the questions but i presume V9.0 will be able to update previous versions?

    Do you mean upgrade from? Upgrades from any 8x version will work. You cannot upgrade directly from Orion 7 to Orion 9.  You'll have to get to Orion 8 first.

    Re: Server 2008 Support

    Have some new blade servers and the sys admins are wondering if we can go forward with a 2008 build or if they need to make a 2003 build for the Orion server.  The database is on SQL so it is being set up on 2008 anyway.

     

    I know the official position is that Orion does not have 2008 support yet but will it run on it?

    If not I would like to resurface this and ask if there is any indication of how long before it will?

    Probably not.  There are some major changes between 2003 and 2008 that break Orion.  We'll get that support in the first half of 2009.

    Denny, I don't suppose 9.1 added support for Server 2008?

    Re: Server 2008 Support

     No.  There are some things in Orion that 2008 breaks, so we're making those adjustments post-9.1.  We'll have it in the next release. 

     

    ...and to anticipate the next post, I don't have a date for the next release yet.  ;-)
