Following a CA DataMinder upgrade, policy compatibility between servers and client machines running different versions of CA DataMinder depends on two factors: whether the upgrade involved a major or minor change in the version of the policy schema, and whether the parent server was upgraded before or after its child machines.
Upgrades to the current CA DataMinder version involve a minor change in the schema versions for both machine policy and user policy. A minor version change implies that the policy structure has not changed, but that some additional policy settings have been introduced.
Policy changes are transferred from upgraded parent servers down to non-upgraded child machines, but any new policy settings (that is, settings not present in existing policies on the child machine) are simply ignored by the child machine.
Upgraded child machines cannot operate with non‑upgraded parent servers. Policy changes are not transferred from non-upgraded parent servers down to upgraded child machines.
