We running SD + ver 8.0.0 build 8013 and we are planing to upgrade  the  hardware , OS and SD + ver. The plan

is to install new server on vmware with  below upgrade requirement :-

 

1. OS version from current version to MS Windows 2008 64 bit

2  MSSQL version from current version to version 2005 64bit

3. SD+ ver to 8.1 latest version

4. Upgrade the current memory from 4GB to 16GB

 

Please advise whether we can restore th backup file from the current server to new server as the version of OS and database is different. (current version 32 bit to new server 64 bit).

 

Thanks
