SUMMARY

The EventReceiverInfo rule in Pre-Upgrade Checker for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 provides information about event receivers that are referenced in a farm. These event receivers must be installed on a farm that is running the next version release that supersedes Windows SharePoint Services and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 for the farm to operate correctly after an upgrade.

Note The EventReceiverInfo rule ships in the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 cumulative update that was released in October 2009. The EventReceiverInfo rule is not part of the original release of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Service Pack 2.
