Running multiple apps with different RFA C++ API versions on same machine

Hello All, We have an application using a older RFA C++ API (ver 6.4.x) running on a high spec RHEL server. On this same server, there is plan to run another app developed using RFA C++ (ver 7.6 or ver 8.x) API. Are there any potential problems that can occur with this solution? Pleae advise.

Thanks.

    I did run applications with different version of RFA in the same machine many times, but never experience an issue related to version compatibily. This scenario should be fine as long as the applications link to correct version of RFA libraries and message files (.mc). If you have interactive provider application, please also make sure that the configuration ports are not the same.
