Version mismatch between Automic Server and Java Client

Products

• CA Automic Applications Manager (AM)

Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to connect to different Applications Manager Servers which are on different versions?

Environment

Release : 9.3.x+

Component : APPLICATIONS MANAGER

Resolution

The client.zip downloaded from a specific version of Applications Manager contain files that are specific to that version.

Because of this the Java Client for a specific version is only able to connect to a Applications Manager master of the same version.

For example, the client.zip from Applications Manager version 9.3.0 can not connect to a master running on version 9.3.1.
