I have a 32 bit server, it is older hardware that I would like to use as an SMT server, my question can I still patch 64 bit OS systems with the 32 bit SMT server? Would there be any issues installing the SMT 11.2 software onto this server?

Thank you ahead of time,

Yes, that should be fine. The SMT software is just a repository for  
whatever you decide to put in there, even if the software running that  
repo is x86\_32.

Good luck.
