NetBackup client for Red Hat Enterprise Server

Hello, Where can I download NetBackup 5.1 client for Red Hat Enterprise Server. I also would like to download Oracle 9 agent for Red Hat Enterprise Server.

Thank you very much in advance.

    Client and agent installs should come on your original Media Kit.
    I do not believe that the base client is available for download (maintenance packs are, however); I could be wrong though.

    Check your master server's install CD.
    Also, if your master server is a Unix machine, you can check this directory for client install files (depends on whether you installed them during your initial setup):
    /usr/openv/netbackup/client

    Lastly, there is no specific agent for specific Oracle versions; it's all 1 agent.
    =)

    symantec is moving away from providing an installation CD to having the customer download the software. I don't like this because some master/media/clients do not have access to the internet. Contact your sales rep to get the download link.

    One would hope that the download links aren't publicly available ...
    Especially since the software never really validates they license keys ...

    But, yeah, I would also rather have a 'hard copy' of the install package than be forced to download it. It's just more convenient sometimes ...
    Don't get me wrong though, being able to download *as well* isn't a bad thing ...
