ArcGIS Pro 2.6.8; Oracle 18c 10.7.1 EGDB:
My organization currently uses ArcGIS Pro 2.6.8. That version is ancient and frustrating to use; we aren't able to take advantage of important bug fixes and new functionality in more modern versions.
I.T. has informed us that they can't upgrade Pro only (as an interim solution; while leaving everything else as-is, such as the database, Enterprise, etc.) because the version of License Manager being used isn't compatible with newer versions of Pro (and I.T. doesn't want to upgrade License Manager if not through a GIS upgrade project). A GIS upgrade project is planned, so we'll hopefully get a newer version of Pro and License Manager in roughly a year.
Question:
For organizations like ours that have limited resources and are only able to do a GIS upgrade project every five years or so, is there anything that can be done to avoid the situation where an outdated version of License Manager prevents upgrading Pro? If there are other options, I want to check to see if our I.T. department has considered them as a way of avoiding this situation in the future.
