NetBackup - 8.3 Release Date?

Does anyone know the release date of the new version of NetBackup?

  • Only Veritas staff know the roadmaps and release dates.

    Please reach out to your local Veritas office, a customer service representative should be able to assist you.

        I have updated the subject :smileywink:

  • They're on a twice-yearly schedule right now, usually Q2 and Q4 - or at least they were before 2020 happened.

    I'd recommend planning for Q4 - it might slip to 2021, or you might be pleasantly surprised and it'll release early; I doubt anyone at Veritas could tell you for sure right now. If you really can't wait you can always sign up for beta testing at https://vxbeta.veritas.com/home.html but they definitely don't recommend running beta versions in production.

      Last I heard as July 29 (for 8.3).

      If you are wanting the 3.3 appliance release that will come some months down the track
