Hi Guys.
I installed NBU client on a Sparc Solaris 7.5, but can not remember how to configure it.
I remember I added the name of Master and media server to a file, but I do not remember which ...
Can yor help me with this little problem.
Thanks.
Regards

Yeah, I thought that directory list looked odd.
After removing the server installation, you want the client software.
Per the NB_7.5files.txt
NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3 UNIX Clients [split]
[MD5:8dfd798f7ae84e7130a9c1dc8c9aa97f]NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3 UNIX Clients [split]

[MD5:dbcde68d73437af47ae5b3f1fe2840b9 ]
Before you uncompress any file, you must first join the split packages, that
you can identify as ".1of2" and ".2of2". Perform either of the following
procedures to join the respective .tar.gz files or the .zip files together on
UNIX, Windows, or LiveUpdate clients.To join NetBackup 7.5 UNIX clients
----------------------------------1. Download all similarly prefixed image files, for example, "_tar-gz.1of2" and
"_tar-gz.2of2".2. Run the appropriate command to join the .tar.gz files together:
- On UNIX systems:
cat "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3" "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3" "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.3of3" > "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz"- On Windows systems:
copy /b "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.1of3"+"NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.2of3"+"NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS_tar-gz.3of3" "NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz"3. Use an md5sum command to ensure that your number matches the below provided
value.md5sum NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz = 24844689e219d3c467e884fb5737101b
Also, the "Size" value is: XX GB (XX bytes)
NOTE: You can download the MD5sum utilities from many sites, choose one that
you trust.4. After you have successfully joined the files, you are ready to uncompress the
packages.

I was actually referring to the Readme file on FileConnect with joining instructions.
Ftp the 3 files to the Solaris server in binary mode, join as per the Readme, then unzip and extract using gtar:
gzcat NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS.tar.gz | /usr/sfw/bin/gtar xvf -
See:
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH154080
Now run the install script.

/usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf
SERVER = master
SERVER = media
03-11-2015 10:36 AM
Hi
I don't have that archive here...
root@client # cd /usr/openv/netbackup
root@client # ls
baremetal db sec vfm_master.conf
bin help vault
client logs version
maybe the client installation failed?
Regards
03-11-2015 10:44 AM
Looks like you are on the Master? (though should have bp.conf there too)
03-11-2015 11:15 AM
No, I'm doing these tests in the Client.
The Master server is installed in Windows Server 2008 STD R2
Thanks.

I downloaded the software from the Symantec web.
maybe I installed the master or media client and I don't installed the client...
03-11-2015 05:11 PM
Which file did you download? The ones with Solaris in the filename are for Solaris servers. Master/media servers.
You need the Unix Client files.
For NBU 7.5 there are 3 files that you need to download and join.
You will find a Readme file on FileConnect with explanation and instructions. You will also find a list in NBU Installation Guide.
Check with pkginfo for SYMC packages. If you see SYMCnetbp, you have installed server software. Remove server software and download Client software.
03-12-2015 05:11 AM
OK, now, how uninstall this?? Only delete the folder openv?
Thanks
03-12-2015 05:31 AM
No, you need to check with pkginfo for NBU installation, then use pkgrm to remove the software.
pkginfo |grep SYMC
Remove any server-relate package that is listed in NBU Installation Guide - see point 14 onwards on p.108.
SYMCnetbp should be sufficient. If it lists other dependencies, remove that too.

Ok. I´m downloading the clients packs again.
Thanks
03-12-2015 01:47 PM
Hi.
I downloaded the three packs
I have a folder that say: NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS
Inside there are two folders, Doc and NBClients, too three archives, Install, LICENCE and VSM_README.
Do I excecute the install archive in this folder? or I most excecute some installator in: Veritas NetBackup 7.5.0.4\Clientes\NetBackup_7.5_CLIENTS\NBClients\anb\Clients\usr\openv\netbackup\client\Solaris\Solaris10...
Thanks

I downloaded that packs in my PC, then I'm going to copy this folder to the Solaris Server.
Attach the VSM_README, but, only has migration steps of 7.0 to 7.5.

I CAN INSTALL THE CLIENT!!
Very THANKS

Guys, a last question.
