Netbackup Maintenance release update procedure

We are on version 7.6.0.2. And going to do patch upgrade to 7.6.0.4.

Is this is a patch update or a full upgrade ? please advice.

Is there any standard procedure document to do the same ? We will upgrade Master server, media server and clients.

    Netbackup 7.6.0.4 is patch update, for safer side take a catalog backup and then proceed for upgrade to Netbackup 7.6.0.4 from Netbackup 7.6.0.2 on master server.

     

    Once Matser server is upgraded successfully proceed to Media server upgrade and then Client

  • FYI - If you have an OpsCenter installation, it is usually recommended to upgrade the OpsCenter installation first before upgrading masters, then medias, then clients.

  • Hi sdo.. we do have OpsCenter. I just checked it and it's already updated to Version 7.6.0.4. Thank you ;)
