Compatibility FMSA v.9 and Windows Server 2008

Hi,

We're currently running FMSA on a sub-prime Windows 2003 Server.

We have received an offer from a hardware supplier for a new, fast, powerful, 4 Go RAM machine which looks as if it could do a better job. The pre-installed OS their machine is Windows Server 2008.

I noticed that this version of Windows is not mentionned on the FileMaker site as being a supported OS for FMSA 9.

But can FMSA 9 work with it?

Yes? No? Maybe?

Is it risky? Minor glitches? Inadvisable?

Non-starter? No-brainer?

Or is it that FM just didn't apply for the "Runs on 2008" label?

Is there anyone out there running FMSA 9 on Windows Server 2008? Successfully?

TIA

Not certified. Might run, although there have been reports of problems from various quarters. FileMaker Server 9 was released before Windows Server 2008; hence your "...didn't apply..." does not apply.

I would not do it, especially if the system is mission critical.

Well, would "didn't apply since 2008 was released " be any better?

Anyway, mission critical it is, so we'll skip 2008. Thank you for the info.
