  • 1.  Spectrum 10 Versus Spectrum 9.4.3

    Posted Oct 06, 2015 05:09 AM

    Good day

     

    I need to understand why release 9.4.3 of Spectrum was released after the release of Spectrum 10? Has it to do with upgrade paths or other reasons. I need to understand to plan for upgrade plans at my customers.

    Hi Jan,

                    9.4.3 is a service pack release while 10.0 is a major release.  We support the GA and GA-1 releases with service packs (when deemed needed/appropriate), so that is currently 10.0 and 9.4.  Please review our release policies for further information.

    Cheers

    Jay
