    As far as I know, the only reason why I keep old NetBackup media is for:

    • 5.1 MP7 Last version with support for Windows NT 4.0 SP4
    • 6.5.6 Last version with support for 32-bit Unix, 32-bit Linux and Windows 2000 SP2.
    • 7.5.0.7 Last version with support for 32-bit NetBackup Servers.
    • 7.6.0.4 Last version with support for Windows 2003.

    Are you sure you need additional media, apart from 6.5?

  • BUT - where do you get the software to download ?

    I do not think you can get it from veritas anymore. So you have to find someone that still has it.

    Hopefully you kept your last download...

    I had mine until I got rid of my last 32 bit system, but removed it for space.

      Some months ago I had to install 6.x on a client who doesn't know how to migrate an application running on a RedHat 4, and had to virtualize it. I still keep a copy of 5.1 because I'm afraid I might find a working Windows NT 4.0 someday.
