Need help for nbdeployutil download

HI All,

I need help to download nbdeployutil. i have found TN: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH148678. it says that i have to install attached exe into my master server. i fiund that it is EEB binary and installed that, but getting error. And i could not get nbdeployutil.Please find the error attached.

it is: "Unable to open F:\Veritas....\admincmd\nbdeployutil" no such file or directory.

Can you please help me to download the utility. NBU ver is 7.0.1

  • Strange that - my 7.0.1 calculator was NB_7.0.1_ET2271100_1 so it must have changed.

    Try running:

    eebinstaller.2391770.10.AMD64.exe -extractonly

    This will extract the files from the executable into appropriate folders - you can then copy the nbdeployutil to the admincmd directory

     

     

  • e.g.

    F:\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd> nbdeployutil.exe -create

    or is it just another of those "Run as Administrator" quirks for the command window?

    Or ...

    do *any* of ther other commands work from that location when run in command line?

    Or ...

    Maybe PATH variable

    Or .... ?

    Sorry I haven't got an up-to-date Windows OS to try any of this on!

  • give a try from below one and check if it helps

    As seen you are on 7.0.1, I would recommend to Download 7.1.0.4 utility which is more improved and gives better picture. (however not 100% accurate but still you'll save alot of MIS work time)

    Download Utility from : http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH148678

    Path:

    On UNIX and Linux systems, the directory path to this command is /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/

    On Windows systems, the directory path to this command is <install_path>\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\

     

    Syntax:

    nbdeployutil.exe --report --traditional

    This would generate xls report under \netbackup\var\global\reports

    Download Latest utility from link i gave

    replace downloaded utility with existing one. and Execute the syntax

    Reason for replacement of existing utility is for improvements and fixes in existing utility

     

    Hope this helps :-)

  • Thank you so much Mark as usual. Command which you gave me worked and after extract i was able to copy it and run the commands. It is successful now.

  • Great - dont forget to close the thread by marking a solution which helps others in the future

    Glad to have helped

  • You can find the usage here:

    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH64620

    In particular, you could have also used the -force option as the error indicated was telling you that the EEB installer couldn't find the exisiting file to back up (because it's new on your system).

  • Help need again. I am getting below error while running the utility. Here is the error output:
