Ok I was just informed that I cannot have two versions of remote agent on one server, is this the case?

I have a 2003 server with full version Backup Exec 11d that runs various jobs for other remote servers. I want this server to be added as a remote server to a 2003 media server which is running Backup Exec 12.5. I cannot get the agent to uninstall successfully on the 11d server, even after following all of Symantecs manual uninstall documentation. This is the recommendation I followed from Symantec: <a href="http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/232443.htm" rel="ugc nofollow">http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/232443.htm</a>&nbsp;but when I go the the media server and try to push the 12.5 remote agent, it says Symante Backup Exec for Windows Servers is already installed on Server. I only need the remote agent and aofo on this server. It is not running in services, nor does it show from the media server, when I navigate in a new backup job, selecting the 11d server and hit properties, it says it is not installed. What am I missing?

Backup Exec Remote Agent Uninstall/Install problem

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
