Immegrate Master Netbackup windows 6.5.6 to 7.1 or 7.5

Hi,

I work for a customer who has Netbackup 6.5.6 and wants to immigrate to 7.1 or 7.5. Does the EMM DB will follow or I need to build a new DB for the new version of Netbackup?


Whatever the answer, what is the procedure?

It's possible to merge the old database with the new one ?

 

Thanks,

I would start here first.

Lots of relevant information for the process and supportability jumping between major and minor versions.

6.5.X can directly upgrade to 7.5  and patch to 7.5.0.6

when you do the upgrade the EMM Database will also upgrade.

check the 7..X upgrade portal
