Debian 8.3 and BackupExec 15FP3

[slawek]

Hello

According to SCL onlu Debian 8.0 is supported - that I know.

Is anyone has Debian 8.3 with working RALUS agent on it?

According to logs

everything seems to be ok - this problem is reported in https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000018862

But my problem is that I can't add this serwer to backupexec console.

You can't add the server to the BE console because that version of Debian is not supported

OK - but qustion is - is it a workaround that will allow that?

I remember same situation with kernel 3.xx - there was a fix for that.
