Unable to Install Netbackup

Hi All,

I am unable to install Netbackup Client on a server. The error logs are mentioned below.

I am getting the error as VRTSpbx >=1.5 is required by SYMCnbclt.

I did tried to uninstall VRTSpbx and again doing the installation, but got the same output.

Master server: 

Solaris 10

 NetBackup 7.6.1.2

Client:

Solaris 11

  • Hi Marianne,

     

    About 15 GB is present in /tmp.

     

     

    Hi Ram Nagalla,

    I will raise the request for a reboot of the server to the user.

  • Why are you using the 7.5 client with your 7.6.1.2 install? I might be corrupted or incomplete installation media

  • Riaan is 100% right. Download NBU 7.6.1 Unix Clients 1. No need for multiple downloads that need to be joined.
  • This is look like a shell execution error - do a "head" on the install script - this will tell you what type of shell the script require.

    Then verify if IJPRT2K01 has that type of shell installed.

  • Hi All,

     

    We took a reboot of the server and then installed the Netbackup. 

     

    Thanks for the help.
