Netbackup upgrade from 8.3.0.2 to 10.1.1 - Linux Redhat

Hey everyone.  We are in the planning stages of upgrading our netbackup environment from 8.3.0.2 to 10.1.1.  Has anybody completed this upgrade before.  Our catalog is over 1TB.  Does anyone know how long the upgrade takes?  Any gotcha's?

Thank you,David

  • Hello,

    I can help you with some steps, I've already done this type of upgrade (I've already done some upgrade to netbackup 10.1.1 and 10.2.0.1).

    do you have any specific needs ?

    Please provide as many details as you can.
    Master server - Windows, Unix or Linux? O/S version?
    Is your hardware for your master server old and needing replaced with newer hardware?
    The upgrade can take a while...expect a long while. If I were you, I'd plan on it taking a full day for the master server upgrade. But I'm only guessing with what info you have already provided.

    Thanks,
