NetBackup v7.1 Installation / Uninstall Instructions

[rraja]

Hi,

Where I can find the similar document for NetBackup v7.1 Installation / Uninstall Instructions.

http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH140347

And a roll-back of the master server from v7.1 to v7.0.1 will it require a catalog recovery??

Install/Upgrade/Uninstall info in the installation guides:

NetBackup Installation Guide for Windows  http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC3648

You are correct - rollback to 7.0.1 will consist of the following:

Uninstall 7.1 (for Solaris that will be a pkgrm)
Install 7.0
Patch to 7.0.1
Recover catalog

I don't know, maybe it should be separate discussion..

Anyway, does anyone use some sophisticated software to mount ISO images of NBU downloaded from Fileconnect? This is about installing the NBU directly from .iso on WS 2008 (64 bit).

NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.1of2
NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.2of2

Downloaded the above from connect, tried to change each to a .zip but this doesn't work. Trying to perform an install.

Any help would be great.

From the README:

To join NetBackup 7.1 Windows 
-------------------------------------

1. Download all similarly prefixed image files, for example, "_zip.1of2" and "_zip.2of2".

2. Run the appropriate command to join the .zip files together:

   - On UNIX systems:
     cat "NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.1of2" "NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.2of2" > "NetBackup_7.1_Win.zip"

   - On Windows systems:
     copy /b "NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.1of2"+"NetBackup_7.1_Win_zip.2of2" "NetBackup_7.1_Win.zip"

3. Use an md5sum command to ensure that your number matches the below provided
   value.

     md5sum  NetBackup_7.1_Win.zip = 3ac2f05e7b91a0d56e8c088395ef8e1c

     Also, the "Size" value is: 1.96 GB (2,115,515,470 bytes)

   NOTE: You can download the MD5sum utilities from many sites, choose one that
   you trust.

4. After you have successfully joined the files, you are ready to uncompress the
   packages.
