  • Support from HP for True64 has ended long time ago (http://h30097.www3.hp.com/pdf/Tru64_Roadmap_Current.pdf
    If I am not mistaken Oracle support for version 9 has also ended...

    You will therefore understand that Symantec can no longer support this OS.

    NBU 7 OS CL: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH76648

    NBU 6.5 was the last version to support True64: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH70729 

    So, the only way to back this up is to find NBU 6.5 installation media. 
    This version is no longer available on FileConnect as support ended in Oct 2012.
    If you do not have a set of download files or original dvd's, your only hope is to find a Symantec partner or SE with a set of dvd's in a 'bottom drawer'.

    Best to convince system owners and dba's to move to supported OS and database versions.

  • Thanks, Marianne. Now I can install HP agent V.6.5 on this machine, but! can not patch to 6.5.6.(after patch agent can not run.) And can not install option database agent. (it's Require 6.5.6 patch) I recommend the customer for backup&restore as a file level. Best regards.
  • No idea why you are saying 'after patch agent can not run.'

    You will need these base 6.5 installations:

    NetBackup Unix Client1 (Tru64(Alpha), HP's and AIX)

    NetBackup Unix Options/Database Agents

    Plus 6.5.6 patches from http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH129076 :
