We did our dev. And SRM does require the ITSM to be upgraded. 1. ARS 2. Atrium 3. ITSM 4. SLM 5. SRM 6. RKM
We didn't have RKM in our previous 7.6.04, so I deselected it from thr ITSM installer. I ran RKM before the new SRM and I problems with its integration with SRM and some other funny stuff in our sandbox. It could just be me and my installation. I read somewhere where someone mentioned RKM to be the last. I did that in our development and its working like champ. But again my sandbox install may have been a corrupt install altogether.
