NetBackup 7.6.0.2 (NetBackup 7.6 Maintenance Release 2) is now available!
(Crossposted from the Netting Out NetBackup blog)
I’m extremely happy to announce that NetBackup 7.6.0.2 is now Generally Available!
NetBackup 7.6.0.2 is our first maintenance release for the NetBackup 7.6 line ("7.6.0.1" was our "7.6 GA" release). This release contains fixes to 568 issues including resolutions for most commonly downloaded EEBs, customer escalations, and critical internally found defects. 7.6.0.2 also provides several critical security fixes and many high-demand proliferations to our customers. The significant content of this release is:
- Almost 200 customer-related defect fixes, including 12 issues highlighted in the 7.6 Late Breaking News
- Security fixes - most notably, removal/update of all components making use of an OpenSSL version potentially affected by "Heartbleed"
- Parity with 7.5.0.7 - if you were still waiting for a 7.5.0.7 fix to make it into the 7.6 line, here's your update!
- Proliferations:
- Oracle 12c
- Hyper-V 2012 R2 w/File level GRT
- VDDK 5.5 (I understand that some of you are interested in this one!)
- FT Media Server SLES 11 SP3
- BMR Proliferations (Solaris 11.1, Suse 11 SP2/SP3, Windows 2012/8, RHEL6 XEN)
- Features

This is a MAINTENANCE Release for NetBackup (as opposed to a Release Update) - it can ONLY be applied on top of NetBackup 7.6 GA. (If you are currently running 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.1, 7.1.0.x, 7.5 OR 7.5.0.x, you will need to upgrade to 7.6 GA before you can apply 7.6.0.2.)
