If you are planning to add 64-bit servers to the matrix, perform the
upgrade first and then add the servers.
Rolling Upgrade for 64-Bit OS
If you are currently using 64-bit servers that are running in 32-bit mode,
you can upgrade the servers to 64-bit mode during the Matrix Server
upgrade. However, you will need to perform a double upgrade. The first
upgrade takes the servers to a supported operating system running
Matrix Server 3.1.2 in 32-bit mode. The second upgrade takes the servers
to 64-bit mode and allows Matrix Server to take advantage of 64-bit
mode. Use one of the following procedures:
