Is there an agent for Backup Exex 2012 that will run on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.3
The linux kernel version (uname -a) is 2.6.39-400.31-2.el6uek.x86_64

OEL 6.3 is not compatible with Backup Exec 2012
Backup Exec has an agent for OEL 6 update 1 (6.1) and 6.0
Please refer to the Software Compatibility List

Thanks for the response but seriously, I think the latest release of Oracle Enterprise Linux is something like 6.5 or 6.6...is there ever going to be an agent for anything beyond 6.1?
6.3 was released around 3 years ago, is there a plan to support operating systems that are newer than 3 years old.
What is the recommended work around in the mean time, or is it time to buy a new backup solution?
