Can NPM7 and Eng Toolset 5 be on the same server

We currently have Toolset ver 5.5 running on our server and just purchased Orion. Can I install this on the same server without having to remove the toolset? I don't really want to upgrade and dont have any maps or data to convert etc. I still want to be able to use some of the toolsets like IP Management, browswer etc.

I did not see anything in the admin guide about it or I may have missed it, but the install just says install SQL then NPM. Nothing about upgrading or anything. Saw some stuff on migrating, but that was about maps.

Thanks

We have the 2002 Engineers Edition Toolset running on the same server as our (now) 7.05 Orion. It's working just fine. It's a Dual 1,3GHz P-III w. 2GB of memory

We are however planning to move the SQL database to a different server, to see if that will make some of the things that are a bit slow (primarily the web-interface) run better.

There is new release or Orion coming out shortly (later this month?) that addresses
the website slowness issues. You may want to wait until then, before going to the trouble
and expense of moving the database to another server.
