Is NetBackup Test Drive on AWS still active?

[NBU_App]

Hi,

Is NetBackup Test Drive on AWS still active? I used to be able to access it from https://www.veritas.com/solution/amazon-web-services/test-drive?q=veritas. But it seems that this link is not active anymore. And when I tried to click on launch a test drive at https://www.veritas.com/en/uk/solution/amazon-web-services/test-drive, it kept on opening the same page.

Thanks in advance for your assistant.

Hi there,

It seems the links to the NetBackup Test Drive on AWS are not working indeed. 

@JustineVelcich, could you direct this to the relevant team, please?

[jrivera23]

Test drive is discontinued and we’re in the process of removing this link from both Veritas.com as well as AWS link that points to this link.

Is there any simulator for Admin Console or the like that I could possibly download or access from the public site?

No. Best option (assuming you have access to the software) would be to install NetBackup on a test machine (VMware/VMware workstation) and play with it in a sandbox. You may need to talk to your account team to obtain an evaluation license.

Thanks for your response. 

Is there anywhere I could download NetBackup Software package for Linux using demo license?

You will need to request the demo license as a start. Please reach out to your local NetBackup reseller. 

The email with the demo license should include a link to the download site.

Thanks Marianne for your response. I'm not pretty sure who is the NetBackup reseller in this area. Would you be able to share the download link and demo license directly to my email.

@NBU_App 

You can look for a partner near you on the Veritas Partner Locator website:

https://partnernet.veritas.com/portal/faces/PartnerLocator

I can give you the download URL, but without a license key, not even I can access the software.

Please locate a partner...

Thanks for the attached links. I'll try to contact one of the partner from the list to get the demo license. Otherwise, I may just test it out on aws.

really appreciate your assistant.
