About 64-bit Surround SCM components

32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Surround SCM Client and Server are available. The 64-bit server lets the server computer access more RAM, which increases the number of branches that can be cached when the server starts. The 64-bit client lets users use Surround SCM on 64-bit Linux systems without needing to install additional libraries.

Keep the following in mind:

• The 32-bit clients can communicate with the 64-bit server and vice versa.
• All installers include the 32-bit and 64-bit components. If you run an installer on a 64-bit system, you can select to install the 32-bit or 64-bit components. See Components installed on 64-bit systems.
• To add or edit Helix ALM items from the 64-bit Surround SCM Client, you must install Helix ALM (or TestTrack 2015.1 - 2016.1). See Setting Surround SCM configuration options.
• Database conversion is not required when upgrading from the 32-bit server to the 64-bit server or downgrading from 64-bit to 32-bit servers. The only exception is if you upgrade from Surround SCM 5.x or earlier, which requires upgrading to Surround SCM 2008 or later to use the 64-bit server. See Upgrading Surround SCM 2008 and Earlier.
