NetBackup 8.3 - Exchange Policy Bugs
Hi All, Just upgraded my NetBackup environment from 8.2 to 8.3 and I noticed the following bugs with Exchange policies. 1. When I try to create a new policy I simply can't finish the procedure because of the following error: Please select a valid snapshot method using 'Snapshot Client Options'. Now when I hit the corresponding "Options" button on the policy screen, nothing happens and I'm not able to see the usual screen where the VSS method is chosen by default with it's corresponding parameters. Everytime I hit the "Options" button literally nothing happens and the only way to save the policy is by unticking the "Perform snapshot backups" checkbox which at least will let you hit the "OK" button at the bottom. When I reopen the same policy, the "Perform snapshot backups" checkbox is once again ticked but still there is no way to modify anything within the "Options" section. 2. When I run the newly created policy, I receive the following error message: ThistypeofbackupisnotsupportedonthisversionofExchange theclienttypeisincorrectintheconfigurationdatabase (72) By my best knowledge both Windows Server 2019 and Exchange 2019 CU6 are fully supported and my policy is set just as per the expected rules according to the NBU documentation. So all in all right now it is impossible to backup Exchange with the new NBU 8.3 version. Any suggestions you may have are highly welcome. For the record I don't have active support contract with Veritas therefore I can't open a support ticket with the vendor.eDiscovery Platform 8.3 Cumulative Hotfix 4 Release

This release also provides a few significant featureenhancement highlights: Improvements in archive filtering for Enterprise Vault Collection, Search, and Hold tasks 8.3 CHF4 provides an enhancement in archive selection while creating Enterprise Vault Collection, Search, or Hold tasks. When archives are deleted on Enterprise Vault after you perform the Enterprise Vault discovery on eDiscovery Platform, these deleted archives do not appear in the Archive Picker while selecting archives to add to the Collection, Search, or Hold task. This enhancement prevents the Collection, Search, or Hold tasks resulting into Partial Success when vault store is selected instead of individual archives as the deleted archives are correctly filtered from the vault store. Enhancements in collection set management Earlier, the default option on the Create Collection Set screen was “Metadata only.” Now you can change the default collection set type by setting the esa.icp.collection.set.create.default_type property using the Property Browser. The values can be set to set the default collection set type to METADATA_ONLY or METADATA_AND_CONTENT. The hotfix by downloading from the aforementioned link and installing from the exe file.
