  • the client you are trying to upgrade is RHEL 4, is it not supported with 7.6.0.1, 

    RHEL 4 does not support 7.5 and later Versions unless the client CPU is RHEL 4 with Power CPU CPU Architecture

    please refer the compatablity list

  • Hi Mairanned,

    Thank you for the response, one more doubt, 

    Is there any minimum approximate space required in /tmp directory as my one upgrade failed woth below error,

    In that client total available space in /tmp is 1.2 GB

  • 1122517 kbytes of space is required

    I would perfer to keep minimun 2 GB free space in /tmp

  • Is this software can be copied to Solrias client from master server for local installation on client.

    As only need to upgrade Solaris clients.

    instead of downloading complete client package -->NetBackup_7.6.0.1_CLIENTS1, can i just copy below file on Solairs clients.

    [root@xxxxxx save]# pwd
    /usr/openv/pack/NB_CLT_7.6.0.1/save
    [root@xxxxxx save]# ls -ltrh
