Firmware & BIOS levels NBU 5230 Appliances
Hi, We are running several NBU 5230 Appliances (Current version 2.6.1.1) From support we have heard that our (RAID) firmware and BIOS levels are not current. My questions: What RAID firmware should we be running? What BIOS level should the 5230 units have? Do disk firmware levels also need updating and what level should they have? If RAID firmware is updated, should drivers be running a certain version as well? If yes, what version is best? Where can we obtain these updates? If we would go to 2.6.1.2, will any firmware/BIOS levels be updated during the upgrade process? (Probably not, I suspect) Has anybody performed these upgrades and encountered any issues? Thanks for any help! FredSolved7.6KViews0likes8CommentsUnable to download patches
Hi, We have a 5230 running 2.6.0.2 and are trying to install more recent patches on it. The first available patch isSYMC_NBAPP_update-2.6.0.3-1.x86_64.rpm. When we check the DownloadProgress, it says its stopped. Any ideas why this would be so? Thanks. FozzieSolved694Views0likes1CommentNetbackup Appliance 2.6.1.1 Mail Issues FIXED
The Mail Issues that everyone is having with netbackup appliance is fixed in 2.6.1.1, but 2.6.1.2 breaks the email fix. Has anyone else experience this Has stated in their release notes SMTP server settings for appliance notifications Starting with NetBackup Appliance 2.6.1.1, all email notifications that get generated by the appliance use the same SMTP settings. These emails include hardware monitoring notifications and NetBackup job notifications. The configuration settings are located under Settings > Notification > Alert Configuration in the NetBackup Appliance Web Console or Main_Menu > Settings > Alerts in the NetBackup Appliance Shell Menu. These settings override any previous SMTP setup you may have previously used to send NetBackup job notifications. Note: If you had already configured the appliance SMTP settings before you upgraded to NetBackup Appliance 2.6.1.1, you may need to re-save the configuration in order for NetBackup to use it. In the NetBackup Appliance Web Console, go to Settings > Notification > Alert Configuration and click Save. Or in the NetBackup Appliance Shell Menu, go to Main_Menu > Settings > Alerts and resubmit the SMTP and SenderID settings.776Views0likes0CommentsNetBackup Appliances 2.6.0.4 is now available!

Have just installed a virtual NB5220 from v2.6.0.1 ISO. Configured as master. All seems ok. Opened browser to WebAdmin GUI, but Windows client kit is not available for download from master. How do I make a Windows Client available for download from the appliance? I guess I'm after something a bit like the v2.6.0.2 Windows Client addon package named: SYMC_NBAPP_addon_nbwin-7.6.0.2-SLES11.x86_64.rpm ...but I obviously need the v2.6.0.1 equivalent. Any ideas?562Views0likes4CommentsDownloading 2.5.4 from Symantec link and it just spashes IE with garbage
