Note
- When you install BMC Configuration Drift Management 8.1.00, the Drift Management 8.1.00 installer performs the upgrade from an earlier version of Drift Management to Drift Management 8.1.00.

Important
You must install Drift Management with the compatible versions of BMC Remedy Action Request (AR) System and BMC Atrium CMDB on Windows or Linux. If AR System and the BMC Atrium CMDB are installed, configured, and running on any platform other than Windows or Linux, you cannot install Drift Management.
