Netbackup client installation on Fedora

[kdclster]

Hi Gurus!!

I am getting trouble while installing Netbackup client of Fedora Release8, (error pasted below). I have Netbackup 7 installed in my master server.

I dont get the option to select Fedora while running the install script on client machine. Can someone please suggest how do i install the clint packge in fedora. or how do i get the package for fedora client.

error -

Detected an attempt to install incorrect platform and/or

operating system and version client binaries on XYZ-host.

Thanks in Advance

You are installing NB 7 - which only supports 64 bit Unix -

if the server is 32 bit you will have to install 6.5 on the client

In addition to above excellent post, please check the OS compatibility guide :

NetBackup 7 Operating System (CL) for Client,Server,Dedupe,OpsCenter,BMR,SAN Client,MSEO:    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH76648

BTW - Fedora is not at all listed in the compatibility guide....

To add into Marianne's post, while checking the compatibility verifiy the kernal version. Since Fedora is free distributable it will not be listed in compatibility guides.
