Update request for DDOS version compatibility matrix

Question

Hi I need to understand the limitations and valid configurations for DDOS 6.0. We have 3 site Datadomain setup, currently all of them are at 5.6.1.x. All 3 systems replicate bidirectionally to other 2 systems. We will be replacing 2 systems with new DD's running at version 6.0.x. I need to know the limitations for replications like does the old DD running 5.6.1 can still do bidirectional mtree replication ? I looked at compatability matrix. https://emcservice.force.com/CustomersPartners/articles/Break_Fix/77209-Replication-Versions-Compatibility-Matrix Can someone from EMC update this matrix to include DDOS 6.0 ??

Hi - DDOS6 Admin guide is the source of those tables in the KBA.

It's still 2 families of compatibility (except collection replication and some caveats to extended retention) so 5.6/5.7 to/from 6.0.

I'll see if I can get the KBA updated. Agree that a search doesn't really drive you to this admin guide readily.
