CA PPM 15.3 Jaspersoft: Service Pack level for SQL Server 2016 ?

[Juan Vizcarra]

Hi everybody.

Searching in the CA PPM 15.3 documents, we found that Jaspersoft components include SQL Server 2016.

But it does not mention the Service Pack level:

 

 

         Source: CA PPM 15.3 Release Notes - CA PPM - 15.3 - CA Technologies Documentation 

 

 

Should be assume that the compatibility is only with the plane version of SQL 2016, i.e. without service packs ?

Do you have other recommendations to interpret this, in order to avoid unnecessary iterations with the infrastructure area?

Jasper 7.1 supports any patch, update, or service pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2012, 2014, or 2016. In our CA docs, you will see a footnote that reads "Future patch levels might work but are not inherently supported." That is because TIBCO might give a CERTIFIED support rating to a given component, but since we are talking about the future, CA cannot blindly guarantee it will always work. For example, we might rollback support to a specific earlier level because of issues we discover in a future update.
