Netbackup Upgrade Help
HI, I am a support engineer, I have limited knowledge about NBU. Don't go harsh on me for asking stupid questions. I have shared the environment details for a client who are planning an upgrade. Lucky for them, I have to do the upgrade. Environment details: PRIMARY SITE: A virtual NetBackup Master Server based upon NBU version 8.1.2 (OS LINUX). A NBU Appliance 5240 configured as a Media Server based upon NBU version 8.1.2 and Appliance version 3.1.2. MSDPis configured on the media appliance. DISASTER RECOVERY SITE: ANBU Appliance 5240 configured as a Master-Media Server based upon NBU version 8.1.2 and Appliance version 3.1.2. Via auto image replication working on one to one model NBU replicates the backup copies from PR site to DR site. Lets suppose we are upgrading to NBU 9.0, Now the questions are, Firstly I will update the master server to NBU 9.0. If the prerequisites check clears. all is good and I should proceed to upgrade the master server and move onto the media appliance. Is that how it goes? The media appliance is based upon NBU appliance version 3.1.2 so upgrading the appliance version to 4.0 would automatically upgrade the NBU version in it from 8.1.2 to 9.0. Is the NBU version bundled in the appliance version or do I have to upgrade it separately? At the DR site when upgrading the NBU appliance to appliance version 4.0, would it update the master and media server NBU versions in it to 9.0 or if I have to update NBU version separately would the media and master server both be updated from the same package? Should I run the AURA (Appliance Upgrade Readiness Analyzer) tool on both PR and DR appliances before upgrading them? Can I downgrade if something goes wrong? MarianneNicolaiRiaanBadenhorstPlease help, thanking in anticipation.

Backup Host SSL issue in Flex Appliance
Hi Folks, We got a Flex Appliance in which we set up 1 Primary and 1 Media, as want to back up some Nutanix VMs through the Cluster. We decided to go with the MediaServer instance as our backup host. The issue is when trying to add the Nutanix Cluster through the NBU Web UI, below the displayed error : "Credential validation failed. Provide correct AHV credentials, ensure that the backup host has Linux/Windows OS, verify that the backup host can access the AHV cluster, or the external CA is configured correctly." After some troubleshooting, we found the "nb_nutanix-ahv.conf" in the Media instance with the parameter "enable_ssl_validations" which is enabled by default. When disabling it, the Cluster is added successfully. Enabling it back, the integration of the Cluster failed again. So, we confirmed that the issue is related to SSL certificate. We tried to set the SSL communication following the NBU documentation, but it did not work, maybe we missed something (Below doc link) : https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/doc/150073865-163074231-0/v147708883-163074231 Any idea how to fix this SSL issue with Nutanix ? Flex v 5.0 and NBU v 10.5. Regards.
