pdb Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Regarding Retrospect server: On the System Requirements page ( https://www.retrospect.com/en/support/kb/system_requirements_win16 ), it says " Intel processor (64-bit) with one or more multicore processors ". It sounds like it wouldn't work on AMD processors. Is that really that case? If AMD is ok maybe it should be changed to x86_64 or something.

DavidHertzberg Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) zz-pdb, I sincerely doubt that it wouldn't work on AMD processors, but I'm a Retrospect Mac administrator—and all Macs manufactured since 2006 have Intel processors (before that they had IBM PowerPC or Motorola processors).. Here's why and how to file a documentation request. P.S.: Here's the most recent post (from 2014) I could find where the OP says he is running Retrospect on an AMD CPU. Here's an 8-month-old post where the OP is having the same problem as jgaiche reported in 2014 but is running Retrospect Windows 15.6 on an Intel CPU. FYI, here's a post from farther down x509's 2018 thread where he recounts Retrospect Tech Support's response to that same problem, which AFAICT will only be resolved for Retrospect Windows administrators by the introduction of the glorious Web-based Management Console.

pdb Posted June 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Ok, have it in writing. Quote Agent Response: AMD is fully compatible. It will work with any 64-bit version of Windows on AMD or Intel. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
