Important: Upgrade Your Appliance Releases to continue getting OS Vulnerabilities Fixes
The following email was sent to all Appliance customers on November 12, 2024. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Veritas Customer, This is an urgent reminder. Similar reminders were sent, earlier this year, on January 28 and May 1. As you may know, Veritas Appliances are protected by a hardened version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Operating System (OS). This article lists the RHEL version in each Veritas Appliance release and the end of OS vulnerability fix support date, which is the earlier of the end of RHEL support date and end of Veritas primary support date. To continue receiving OS vulnerability fixes and keep your appliances secure and operating efficiently, you must upgrade to a RHEL 8.8-based Appliance release (as recommended below). Veritas will be unable to provide fixes to OS vulnerabilities if you are not running a RHEL 8.8-based appliance release. NetBackup Flex Appliance 5.1 If 5.x is not an option, then upgrade to 4.2 NetBackup Appliance 5.3.0.1 Maintenance Release 3 (MR3) If 5.3.0.1 MR3 is not an option, then upgrade to an earlier Maintenance Release of 5.3.0.1 NetBackup Access Appliance 8.3 If 8.3 is not an option, then upgrade to 8.2 NetBackup Flex Scale 3.2.100 To maintain the highest security posture and protect against cyber threats, customers should always upgrade to the latest available release and apply the latest available Quarterly Maintenance Release (MRs) and Monthly Security Patches (SPs) on NetBackup Flex Appliances and NetBackup Appliances. MRs deliver a roll-up of product and security fixes, while SPs deliver the latest OS vulnerability fixes. Irrespective of whether you take the above action or not, you will continue to get support per Veritas product lifecycle. If you have any questions, please Contact Support | Veritas™ or create a Support case Online. Additional information about Maintenance Releases and Security Patches can be found in the following articles: NetBackup Appliance Maintenance Releases NetBackup Flex Appliance Maintenance Releases Veritas Appliances Monthly Security Patches Sincerely, Your Veritas Support Team

Still receiving email alerts for fixed issues
Hi all Every day I get an Alert Summary email as below showing my Unresolved Alerts. However this issue has long since been fixed, the log filesystem on the NetBackup virtual appliance is only 27% full (see below), but I keep getting this email anyway. How can I mark this as resolved so I stop getting the email? Virtual appliance version is 5.0.0.1. Thanks in advance. The partition usage has exceeded warning threshold and will soon reach full capacity. Cleanup the partition and re-check status. If the issue is not resolved, contact Veritas Technical Support for assistance.
