Checking Version Compatibility Before installing the client product, you must check that the product is compatible with the version of the Neoview release installed on the Neoview platform. For all client products, refer to the Neoview Client and Platform Compatibility Reference for version compatibility information. This document is available at http://www.hp.com/go/neoviewdocs.
The client product version remains in sync with the major Neoview release, such as Release 2.5, but only if the client product is changing (that is, has defect repair or new features) for the release. If a client product is not changing, it retains its current client product version. Client products can be changed independently of a minor Neoview release, such as R2.4 SP2 or R2.4.2. Each update of a client product increases the update number of the client product version.
