Hi, There appears to be an unnecessary level of confusion, here in Australia at least, about Backup Exec multi-year SKUs. Two key Symantec tools aren't correctly generating the multi-year SKUs for backup Exec, for new licenses, renewals or upgrades. The two key Symantec tools getting the SKUs wrong are: The Symantec SKU Genertaor: http://kdw.knowledgedirectweb.com/symantec/symantec2.html The Symantec Margin Builder: https://marginbuilder.partnermarketing.com/ In all cases, when selecting a multi-year Backup Exec license product (new, renewal or upgrade) the SKUs generated are always multiples of the 12 month SKUs, which end in El1ES. What should be generated are the multi year SKUs ending in El2ES (for 24 monthe) or El3ES (for 36 months). I have tried talking to the channel, my Symantec contacts (numerous they are) as well as trying to contact channel marketing personnel on Symantec Connect, who have posted in the past about the Margin Builder site. However, all my attempts at getting this fixed are met with pointing fingers, shrugs of shoulders or, quite rudely unprofessional, no response whatsoever! If you guys can't get your SKUs right in your own partner and channel tools, after repeated reports of the failures, what does this say about your company's approach to QA? This is why Symantec's products are suffering. Your organisation is suffering from some pretty serious disfunction at the moment, with everybody behaving like teflon and not taking ownership or responsibility for things. I apologise for the rant and for being somewhat brutally frank about my perception of this situation, but I am finding dealing with you guys increasingly frustrating.

Mobile Code Signing Certificate
Hi I'm trying to make a verification by signing the eligibility requirements. I have the Symantec Publisher ID and a primary email adress. But I get answers like: You are not currently an active publisher of Microsoft Windows Dev center, Your publisher Id is unknown or does not match the primary email adress on file. Your publisher Id is not associated with a valid Enterprise accout or you did not sign up as an organization. As far as I can see I've done everything alright, but nothing works Regards Jorgen515Views0likes0CommentsWhat is the difference between "Expiration" and "Firm Expiration" in bpminlicense?
Snippet from when I run "bpminlicense -verbose" Expiration = Not expired Sat Feb 16 00:00:00 2013 Time Left = 2 Days Firm Expiration = Not expired Thu Feb 28 00:00:00 2013 What is the difference between the two? There is nothing in the publications or any knowledge article that explains what these fields actually mean.690Views2likes1CommentYou design your system
For better be your antivirus, two problems occur frequently: Lack of update. Inefficiency to block changes in the registry keys or writing to the system folder. For malware to install itself on the system successfully it needs basically two things, run and allowed to spread. Many users do not know, but as an administrative user, you have the power to destroy your system if you wish, as well as install whatever you want on it. When working on a computer as an administrative user, everything the user does is run with administrative powers and as such, you can modify any part of the operating system. hugs451Views2likes0Comments
