Pre-Installation Procedures
30 ePolicy Orchestrator
™
software version 3.0
Upgrading to MDAC 2.7
Before you install the ePolicy Orchestrator software, you need to determine the
version of Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) currently installed on all
ePolicy Orchestrator database servers, then upgrade to version 2.7 as needed.
Because the ePolicy Orchestrator server uses version 2.7, it’s important that all
database servers use the same version to avoid performance and functionality
issues.
WARNING
The ePolicy Orchestrator 3.0 Setup program upgrades MDAC
automatically for local database servers using an English,
French, German, Japanese, or Spanish language version of the
database software. You must do this manually for all remote
database servers and for all local database servers using a
Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), or Korean
language version of the database software.
