Registering 6.5 servers in 7.0 EM

[John Driggers]

Hi! Just started playing, but when I try to register an active (on the network) 6.5 server in the 7.0 EM I get the message that I must upgrade the 6.5 server...I know in 6.5 I could access 6.0 servers after runnning a script on the 6.0 server, but so far I don`t see anything like this for 7.0. Will I end up having to run 2 versions of EM on a machine (if possible) to access my 6.5/7.0 servers? (I know I won`t be able to do anything fancy, but it is nice (under my 6.5 EM) to be able to manage server activity/db`s from one machine, regardless of them being 6.0 or 6.5!

John,

I could not even get the 6.5 EM working after I installed 7.0 EM
on my machine.

My 6.5 EM can not connect to a 6.5 database on other host that
only 6.5 is installed. The message I am getting is:
A connection could not be established to `hostname` - [DB-library]
unable to connect: SQL Server is not available or not exist. General
network error. Check your documentation.

Anybody know why?

Thanks
Meihui
