Mixed poller server environment?

I have 4 polling engines and am about to upgrade the hardware on 2 of them. Do any of you know of any issues with running some pollers on Windows Server 2003 and some on Server 2008? What if 2 servers are 32 bit Server 2003 and 2 are 64 bit Server 2008?

Hello,

Our Orion NPM is also a mixed environment and have experienced no problems. We currently have our main Orion NPM server on a Win2008 R2 as well as two of our additional pollers. Our third additional poller is Win2003. Again, we have not seen any problems of having a mixed environent.

So let's back this out just a bit... has anyone simultaneously run multiple pollers on different Windows Server versions?

For example, if you have 3 pollers in your installation, have you ever run 2 on Server 2003 and 1 on Server 2008?

*crickets* Guess I'll just give it a shot.
