Maximo 7.1 on Windows Server 2008

From: amir samir (2011-10-01 05:39)

Hi,
I am trying to install Maximo 7.1 on a Windows Server 2008, but it says that it is not supported on this platform.
Altough, IBM says that it is now supported on the 7.1.1.5 fixpack.
Since 7.1 is a prerequisite for 7.1.1.5. How can I first install Maximo 7.1 on Windows Server 2008?
I really appreciate your answers.
Thank you

Are you using a recent release of the installer?

I think you only need to install the latest or target version of Maximo on the application server. This is how we are doing it for our upgrade from 622 to 7118, I just installed the 7115 software on Win2k8 r2 64bit server,and patched it to 7118. I believe what they mean by 7100 being a prerequisite for 7115 is that the upgrade utility will upgrade the DB to 7100 level, and then you'll have to run updateDb to take the DB to 7115 (or whatever your target level is). We are in the testing phase of our upgrade and have performed this process several times and seems to work well.
