My W7 PC which had EP installed under the 9.0 is showing up to date on the PC. The UTM is showing the PC to be inactive and has been offline for 37 days.
I thought I saw a post about this earlier today, saying it (EP from 9.0x won't work with the beta) is a current issue in the beta, and to wait for a fix.
I will wait until 9.1 goes into production before updating my w7 EP.
Looks like too much stuffing around to remove an existing installation, just ot do it again when the beta goes into production. But I could try w8 and see what happens.
As of 9.070 and a recent update to the Endpoint that you get when you download from the link provide by the UTM, Endpoint is now fully supported in the Beta.
The main reason that it was not supported until recently was because of these upgrade issues. These have been resolved.
The following is supported:
==Release== 9.0 Endpoints talking to 9.0 UTMs = current production 9.0 Endpoints talking to 9.1 Release UTMs = Should work (after 9.1 is released) 9.1 Endpoints talking to 9.1 Release UTMs = Should work (after 9.1 is released)
==Beta== 9.0 Endpoints talking to 9.1 Beta UTMs = Not supported 9.1 Beta Endpoints talking to 9.1 Beta UTMs = Supported, you must install beta EP manually
==Upgrade== 9.0 Endpoints upgrade to 9.1 Beta Endpoints = You must install beta EP manually 9.0 Endpoints upgrade to 9.1 Release Endpoints = Should work (after 9.1 is released) 9.1 Beta Endpoints upgrade to 9.1 Release Endpoints = Should work (after 9.1 is released)
In other words - if you want to use Endpoints during beta you must reinstall with a 9.1 beta Endpoint. However if you do that you won't have to reinstall the 9.1 release endpoint.
To state it another way - the only way to use the beta (UTM or EP) is to explicitly install it, you cannot get from release to beta without a manual install. But don't worry, after it is released going from the beta back into release should be painless.
