Environment. Before deploying your appliance in this environment, the Backup Exec Central
Administration Server must be running the equivalent version number for Backup Exec as the
version of Backup Exec running on your appliance. For example, appliances running Backup
Exec 12.5 for Windows Servers require that the Central Administration Server running Backup
Exec 12.5 before the appliance can be managed by the Central Administration Server. Once
associated with a Central Admin Server, your appliance can be managed and monitored like a
