defender 6.2 new build impact on existing

Hi,  I am looking to install Defender 6.2 on a new W2019 server as part of an upgrade.

This is to replace an existing W2008 Defender 5.8.1 server. 

During the 6.2 install it asks to update Active Directory. 

Can I install and build the new server without affecting the operation of the existing server? 

Also can i use the same AD service account?

  • Hi,

    Would be grateful if i could get a steer on the above.

    Essentially i want to build and test defender 6.2 on on  new W2019 machine whilst the old Defender 5.8.1 continues to operate.

    Once I have successfully tested i can move over to the new server and decom the old. 

    But there is an option to update Active Directory and i am worried that building the new will affect the old setup.

    Any help would be great thanks.
