PYao is correct. From a K2 perspective, we do not distinguish whether your Windows server OS was upgraded or installed fresh.

I know there are many lively debates in the multiverse about whether or not in-place OS upgrades are a good thing. I hesitate to weight in on this, other than to say the old support mantra "test, test, test!" If you are on Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2, and looking to upgrade to 5.3, K2 will support your K2 upgrade whether on new servers or upgraded OS. 

Best regards,

Gail
