Use new client tools (15.2) while server is on 15.1.2?

We have a new colleague starting, and the update of our servers to 15.2. is planned for August (Dev) and end of August/September for Prod.

Can the new client tools for 15.2 be used already, while the server is behind? Then the new colleague can use the new version straight away and doesn't need to uninstall and install everything again in 6 weeks.

(we are working on a better solution to avoid the manual uninstall/install to upgrade)

  • Hello Andriy,

    I'm just conducting an evaluation for the TD15.1.2 server and TD15.2 client tools combination. I'm not sure whether this issue is caused by the TD15.1.2 custom configuration for our company, but images don't display in the Publication Manager, as shown in the screenshot below.

    Screenshot of the Publication Manager showing a topic titled 'Before servicing and repairing' with a prolog and safety instructions listed.

    However, if I select the image, it displays properly.

    Screenshot of the Publication Manager displaying an image labeled 'MASTER000IBM001A' with a draft status, showing a manual icon, a hand pointing, and a key with a stop symbol.

    Since we'll be upgrading TD to 15.2.0 within a couple of months, this is not a critical issue, but I wonder why this is happening.

    Regards,
    Naoki
