NetBackup 7.7.2 Upgrade Queries

[Kernal]

The upgrade seems to have gone rather smoothly….except….

The Storage Lifecycle Policies has the hourglass on it and that has been that way for several hours now.

I sorta assume it’ll work itself out eventually…but it does make me wonder.

I created a couple of new SLPs and those don’t show up in the SLP window at all but I can choose them in a normal policy as they show up in the choice for Policy Storage in the attributes tab for the policy.

Suggestions?

Is your java console also at 7.7.2?

Hi Revarooo,

Don't have java console as its Windows Based system Windows Server 2008 and i am seeing this in the NB Admin Console. Are you refering to Admin Console?

Hi Kernal,

From NetBackup 7.7, the NetBackup Admin Console has been replaced with the Java Console.

Would I be right in guessing you are running the NetBackup Admin Console either from a management workstation, or a NetBackup installation that is pre 7.7?  IE: I'm guessing you don't have the NetBackup Admin Console on the Master/Media servers you've upgraded to 7.7.2?

You can find a lot of posts in this forum regarding the Java Console now being the new management platform.  I'm still on 7.6.0.4, so still have the Windows based NetBackup Admin Console.  I'd love to keep using that when I upgrade to 7.7.x, but unfortunately you don't have a choice :(

Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve,

, I rebooted the server. That got rid of the hourglass and the new SLPs that I had created showed up. Backups appear to have run correctly last night. So the issue is fixed.
