Netbackup License for 7.6 upgrade

 

Hi All,

I am planning for Netbackup version upgrade from 7.5 to 7.6.

Do i require any additional license other than the existing license keys?

I think upgrade license key has to be provided by Vendor, but I'm not sure.

Kindly provide your inputs.

    You should login to https://my.symantec.com/ go to the license portal and upgrade your license keys. You'll need your original 7.5 certificates with serial numbers. If you've already registered the 7.5 keys before you can just login and upgrade the keys.

    As far as you don't make any changes using new feature or newly supported configuration, current license key works. But it is better to request upgraded license keys to your local resaler or Symantec for potental ise of new features & configuration in future.

    Best to register your curent license keys.

    This way you will receive upgrade notifications along with new version license key and new product serial number that will allow you to download the new software.

    See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH205704 

    Please follow these instructions for registering your product on the Symantec Licensing Portal:

    1. Go to https://licensing.symantec.com

    2. Returning customers Login. New users must Create an Account first.

    3. After logging in, select the Version Upgrade button.

    4. Then select the I don’t have an Upgrade Notification ID button.
