Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 Rev. 4691 service pack downloads?
Hi all
We have a number of different versions of Backup Exec running in our office, but it is primarily Version 9.1 Rev 4691. As far as I can tell, no hotfixes or service packs have been applied to these systems. Having worked with this version for a long time now it occurred to me the other day that there are probably plenty of updates that can be applied, which would help in solving issues that the program seems to have.
However, neither the Veritas Update link on the menu or indeed any of the links from the Symantec site seem to work.
I know that this software is now years old and is no longer supported by Symantec. However, given the extremely high cost of upgrading to the latest and greatest version, this is what I have to work with.
So, where can I download these updates / service packs please?
The following links:
http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/274647.htm
AND
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/downloads.jsp?pid=15047
suggests easy downloads for the files that I want. However none of the links work!
Sort it out Symantec, I know you have those files somewhere.
Cheers,
Archie

- Archie,
Through the assistance of a colleague, I have managed to make a copy of Service Pack 5 available at the link below, which is last 'rollup' pack released for v9.1.4691.
support.veritas.com/docs/286923
Please be aware that this will be available for a very short time only and may not be there tomorrow, so would advise that you download this and keep a copy for future reference.
As you have mentioned, this product version is now quite old and is not supported. This has contributed to the previous Service Packs, Hotfixes and Technotes not being publicly available any more.
