are you trying to install it as a master a media or a client
is it 32 or 64

Note that 2008 did not become supported until 6.5.2. so you need to down load the correct nb files

 Symantec currently doesnt support Windows 2008 R2, only R1 so make sure you are using R1. Also, I could not get Windows 2008 to work until 6.5.4 which I installed from a single file that brought the server directly to that version. After using that install file it worked flawlessly.

Dear Sir

I have a 6.5.3 master server (solaris 9) and connect  Tape library with SCSI &  SAN ( robot by scsi , Tape Driver by SAN) . Today I install a media server on windows 2008 sp2 x64 with NBU 6.5.2 x64. I can see all driver by SAN . But when I upgrade it to 6.5.3 that the Remote manager monitor server can't stop . I must kill the nbrmms process and the upgrade can go on.
When the installation is finish , I restart my 2008 server . But when I use tpconfig command there are no any respond . And I cant start the EMM service . And I use bpdown commend then the Remote manager monitor server can't stop .
Could anybody  help me please ?
