Hi,

My company is upgrading the server OS from 2008 R2 to 2016. Will this have an impact on qlikview which is residing in it? Would highly appreciate any kind reply.

Cheers

Hi @PhilTeo,

There shouldn't be any adverse effects. Do have a look at the Qlik Support article Impact of Windows Operating System Upgrades and Patches and be sure to make backups of the QlikView environment before upgrading the OS.

Best Regards
