Netbackup 9.1.0.1 opserver - Windows upgrade

Hello

We are in need to upgrade the OS - windows 2012 R2 to windows 2019 standard for our netbackup 9.1.0.1 opscenter server.   I cant seem to find to much out there with regard to performing an OS upgrade on a netbackup opscenter server.   Wonder if there is anything special that I need to do prior to upgrading the OS on this OpsCenter server.? Or if you can point me to a document that list some details.  Thanks in advance.

Thanks

BC

 

  • Shutdown OpsCenter. Backup the OpsCenter DB to a different drive. Stop all OpsCenter services to include the DB engine. Upgrade Windows. Reboot the server. Allow about an hour after the reboot and check the OpsCenter GUI for connection health and current data connection.

    BTW, if you haven't upgraded to OpsCenter 10.0.0.1, please do. It's the last release of OpsCenter and once you upgraded your master server to 10.1, you don't have a working OpsCenter any longer. Then you will need to move to NetBackup IT Analytics, which is the Veritas version of Aptare IT Analytics.
