Is there a NetBackup full installer that will run successfully on Mac OS X 10.5
Hi all, I wonder if anybody can shed any light on the following problem. I have a NetBackup server running version 6.5.2 and a need to connect Mac clients. The clients are running Mac OS X 10.5.6 and 10.5.8. According to http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/304434.htm NetBackup 6.5.2 is a patch release that is meant to upgrade an existing 6.5.x installation. Attempting to locally install NetBackup 6.5 on a client running Mac OS X 10.5 will fail. What installer do I need to run on my 10.5 boxes to make NetBackup recognise them as clients?. Thanks in advance, Matt
nbu client 'push' backup - ala Time Machine
hey guys, we have a ton of macs that are configured to be backed up nightly. a lot of these are laptops that people take home sometime, and therefore we end up with a ton of failed backups in the activity monitor. this 'pull' mechanism for laptop backups seems to not work very well, due to the machines being mobile so much. i'm wondering if there is any convenient (i.e. doesn't require some elaborate client-side cron job or scripting) to do a kind of 'push' backup for these machines. something like they connect to the internal network, and then wake up and start backing themselves up to netbackup. kinda/sorta like time machine i guess. does netbackup support something like this?
