netbackup minor version upgrade

Hello!

I have a quick question on how to upgrade netbackup for example, from version 7.1.0.2 to 7.1.0.4 . Is it done with a simple procedure, like - stop NBU, run upgrade, start NBU, or we need to follow installation/upgrade guide, which tells to disable all policies/SLP, deactivate media servers and so on... ?

Another question, can 7.1.0.2 media server work with 7.1.0.4 master ?

Thanks a lot!

    instructions are in each of the download packages

    7.1.0.4 Download Links
    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH181132

     

    Compatibility can now go both ways (as I found out the other day!)

    From the above URL:

    You can apply this release to any NetBackup 7.1 master, media, or client server, in any order, and retain compatibility between the components.
