BusinessObjects 4.2 SP9 to 4.3 latest version

[prefer-not-to-say]

Hi

I am interested in doing an in place update from BusinessObjects 4.2 SP9 to the latest 4.3 version on a Windows Server.

Has anyone written a blog post / SAP note about how to do this ?

Is it easy to do, any License implications ?

Does the Server / Client software still need to match, so I would need to update from 4.2 SP9 clients to 4.3 clients, or can the client stay the same 4.2 SP9 but the server version is the latest 4.3 Service Pack.

Any Gotcha's I need to be aware of.

Thanks.

it is not recommended to do an inplace upgrade.
if you want to do/try this anyway, have fun within with your test-environment.
there is already a lot of information and webinars available about upgrading 4.2-->4.3
