Hi,
I need a little help to disable the the scanning in netbackup server. Our security team is complaining that backup server is trying to communicate with some out side IPs.
They have given me these steps to disable the scanning:

The only "outside" system Netbackup will try to contact is the telemetry servers.
Telemetry can be disabled. On Linux/UNIX system set TELEMETRY_UPLOAD = NO i bp.conf.
The steps given by the security does not apply for Netbackup , only to BackupExec (Veritas Entry level backup product).
Some tech notes:
