OES 11 SP3 on up to OES 2015.1 NSS Novell / MicroFocus

[pwolfe]

Does anyone know if BackupExec has plans to support:

SLES SP4 With:

• OES 11 SP3 (NSS Volumes)
• OES 2015 (NSS Volumes)
• OES 2015.1 (NSS Volumes)

I understand a work arround is to edit the "/etc/novell-release"  and change it to the older SLES11SP3 settings.

I find this to be a poor workaround as if you forget to change it back prior to running system updates.......(Well Do I need to say the rest....).....

Another work arround would be to create a "pre and post" task to edit the file 

By  creating OS/OES-Version "templates" for both version and the copy the

• Pre Job Task - Copy Template -  SLES11SP3/OES11SP2 over /etc/*release 
• Post Job Task - Copy Template - SLES11SP4/OES2015SP1 over /etc/*release 

Thanks!

If it isn't on the SCL, then officially it isn't supported. Veritas do not publish roadmaps of support either unfortunately.
