  • 1.  nas 9.00?

    Posted Jul 20, 2018 10:07 AM

    Anyone have any gotchas/watch out for/issues outside "known issues" that are worth considering before I upgrade my nas to 9.00 from 8.52?  I don't  currently have any issues per say that I can speak of with the 8.52 version I am currently running, which begs the question of why upgrade then.  At this point I think its time to come up to speed with nas 9.00 as I move forward with cleaning up our UIM environment.  I like to think there is some improvements to be had even when they are not readily apparent in the product information document.  So I throw it out to the community to provide some input good or bad before I make the move.  Since I have not come across any other info not to, if I don't hear anything negative worth holding off, I plan to upgrade mid late next week.

    the only reason to update to nas 9.0 is if you are using the latest spectrumgtw probe that requires this.

    the latest hotfix is here:

    If you are not having an specific problem you are trying to solve I would leave your nas venison where it is.

    You could upgrade to 8.56HF5 to 9.00 if required as you are on 8.5x.Check the release notes for the changes for 8.56HF5
