Here's some notes - quasi worked example...
...but these instructions will very likely not exactly work for you - because I cannot see what your folders are...
...so these steps are here purely as an outline guide...
...you will need to adapt them to suit your own site specifics:
.
You will need:
1) OS install ISO, e.g.: rhel-server-6.6-x86_64-dvd.iso
2) NetBackup 3PPCD ISO, from: https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH37875
3) A copy of the NetBackup Client kits extracted locally within the guest VM.
4) Two CD ROM drives on the VM, you can do it with one, but two just makes it easier at the time.
5) circa 20GB free on the client.
# Install some packages for NetBackup BMR support, if you don't have these, then BMR SRT and/or ISO creation will fail:
yum install -y mkisofs parted usbutils
# ...check that you have one/two CD/DVD ROM drives:
ls -lashd /dev/cd*
# Check tar version, must be 1.16 or higher to be able to unpack the NetBackup Client kits:
tar --version
# ...if tar is not at least v1.16 then you cannot continue with this process, and you must upgrade tar before continuing...
# ...see: http://www.veritas.com/docs/000012145
# Make the NetBackup Client kits folder:
mkdir /mnt/stuff/NBU-KITS
chown -Rv my-admina:my-admina /mnt/stuff
REM Copy the tar-ball kits up from NetBackup based management server:
REM ...start a DOS/cmd box:
cd /d "F:\NBU-KITS-CLIENTS\NetBackup Client - Linux"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY\pscp.exe" *.tar my-admina@2.2.99.211:/mnt/stuff/NBU-KITS/
# On the client, unpack the kits:
cd /mnt/stuff/NBU-KITS
# ...extract as you normally would the client installer kits...
# tar -xvf tarball.tar
# ...optionally delete the large client ".tar" files...
# rm -v tarball.tar
# Create folders for NetBackup SRT (Shared Resource Tree) and NetBackup BMR boot ISO images:
mkdir /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT
mkdir /mnt/stuff/NBU-ISO
# Register this VM as a NetBackup BMR Boot Server:
bmrsetupboot -register
# In the VM properties, ensure:
# DVD drive 1 points to OS installer ISO e.g.: rhel-server-6.6-x86_64-dvd.iso
# DVD srive 2 points to NetBackup 3PPCD e.g.: bmr-3ppcd-1.0_275782.iso
# Create the first base version NetBackup BMR SRT:
bmrsrtadm
# Enter your selection (1-8) [8] : 1 (Create a new Shared resource Tree)
# Name: R66_761
# Description: Redhat 6.6, NetBackup v7.6.1
# location: /dev/cdrom
# Enter the desired architecture (i686 or x86_64) [x86_64] :
# Enter the directory in which to place the new SRT [/export/srt] : /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT
# ...then prompts for the "Symantec BMR Third-Party Products CD (3PPCD)"
# location: /dev/cdrom1
# ...then prompts for the NetBackup Client kit:
# location: /mnt/stuff/NBU-KITS/NetBackup_Client_RedHat_v7.6.1/
# ...which runs the installer script...
# Do you wish to continue? [y,n] (y) y
# Do you want to install the NetBackup client software for this client? [y,n] (y) y
# Enter the name of the NetBackup master server : mymaster.zzz.com
# Would you like to use "myclient.zzz.com" as the configured name of the NetBackup client? [y,n] (y) y
# Enter your selection (1-8) [8] : 8 (Quit.)
# [Info] V-125-669 SRT "R66_761" has been created successfully.
# Unmount the CD/DVD drives:
umount /dev/cdrom
umount /dev/cdrom1
eject /dev/cdrom
eject /dev/cdrom1
# Copy the SRT to another new name, so that we can patch it:
bmrsrtadm
# Enter your selection (1-8) [1] : 3 (Copy an existing Shared Resource Tree to a new location.)
# Enter the name of an existing SRT : R66_761
# Enter the name of the new SRT to create : R66_7612
# Enter the description of the new SRT [RedHat 6.6, NetBackup v7.6.1] : RedHat 6.6, NetBackup v7.6.1.2
# Enter the directory in which to place the new SRT [/mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT] :
# [Info] V-125-434 SRT "R66_761" has been successfully copied to "R66_7612".
# Now patch the copied SRT:
bmrsrtadm
# Enter your selection (1-8) [1] : 5 (Modify an existing Shared Resource Tree.)
# Enter the name of an existing SRT : R66_7612
# Enter your selection (1-8) [8] : 1 (Install Symantec NetBackup Maintenance Pack.)
# Load media from (? for help, 'none' to return to the menu) [/dev/cdrom] : /mnt/stuff/NBU-KITS/NetBackup_Client_RedHat_v7.6.1.2/
# Enter pack name (or q) [q]: NB_CLT_7.6.1.2
# Enter pack name (or q) [q]: q
# Enter your selection (1-8) [8] : 8 (Quit.)
# [Info] V-125-670 SRT "R66_7612" has been modified successfully.
# check sizes of SRTs:
du --max-depth=1 -h /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT/
# 703M /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT/R66_761
# 755M /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT/R66_7612
# 1.5G /mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT/
# Now create a BMR boot ISO from the SRT:
bmrsrtadm
# Enter your selection (1-8) [1] : 2 (Create a new CD image based Shared Resource Tree.)
# Enter the name of an existing SRT : R66_7612
# Enter the name of the new SRT to create : R66I7612
# Enter the description of the new SRT [RedHat 6.6, NetBackup v7.6.1.2] :
# Enter the directory in which to place the new SRT CD image [/mnt/stuff/NBU-SRT] : /mnt/stuff/NBU-ISO
# [Info] V-125-718 Media image has been successfully created.
# Check the size of the ISO:
du --max-depth=1 -h /mnt/stuff/NBU-ISO/
# 755M /mnt/stuff/NBU-ISO
# Grab a copy of the ISO to keep in your shared repository on a management host somewhere:
cd /d "F:\"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY\pscp.exe" my-admina@2.2.99.211:/mnt/stuff/NBU-ISO/R66I7612.iso .\
# ...and then copy the ISO to a location that is visible to the hypervisor host.
