Overview

The support matrix lists all the configurations and versions currently supported by SEP sesam and SEP IT-Save. SEP sesam automatically detects your environment's hardware configuration. Note that SEP sesam only recognizes storage devices known or listed by the operating system, such as OS where the Master Server/Remote Device Server will be installed. For details, see Storage Hardware page.

SEP sesam Backup Servers and Clients

Versions older than 4.4
For each operating system the latest SEP sesam version is listed, thus ensuring that the listed version works with 4.4 SEP sesam Server. For example, a SLES7 running version 3.4 of a SEP sesam Client will be backed up by a SEP sesam Server version 4.4.2. There will be no development for versions prior to 4.4; however the support and bug fixes are still available.

It is recommended to upgrade the SEP sesam server and client components to the latest version during the regular upgrade process (check the list of SEP sesam release versions). This ensures the highest possible protection of the SEP sesam Clients. Customers with a valid license are eligible for a free SEP sesam upgrade for any new release until the end of the license term. Before upgrading your SEP sesam environment, check the support matrix and compatibility.

Information sign.png Note
  • Tar (.tgz) installation no longer available
  • Since SEP sesam V4.4 tar files are no longer available. For earlier SEP sesam versions, SEP provides generic tar (.tgz) installation kits of SEP sesam for Linux based on glibc 2.0-2.4 on i386/x86-64. They can be used for almost all Linux distributions, but SEP provides no guarantees of their usability. Support is available on a best effort basis.
    Attention: No support is offered for tar installations on systems, where native packages are available.
  • SEP sesam Server 4.2 or lower compatibility issue
  • SEP sesam GUI version 4.4 does not support downgrading to SEP sesam Server version 4.2 or lower. Installing SEP sesam GUI 4.4 in the environment with a lower SEP sesam Server version causes errors due to incompatibility of SEP sesam GUI version 4.4 with older SEP sesam Server versions. Since there is no GUI backward compatibility and the GUI cannot be downgraded to version 4.2, you should download and install SEP sesam GUI version 4.2 from SEP Download Center to preserve compatibility with SEP sesam 4.2 or lower.
