Netbackup upgrade
I am trying to upgrade a server from 9.1.0.1 to 10.3 After running the prechecks with the installer I get an error message: Can't read file C:\Program files\Veritas\db\Data\vxdbms.conf at C:\Users\**\AppData\Local\Temp\**file name that does not exist**" Our vxdmbs file is located at C:\Program files\Veritas\NetBackup\NetBackupDB\Data How do I fix where the installer is looking for the file. I have already looked at the file and it has the right file path.

Hello, Please your help with this scenario, we have a Flex Appliance 5250 B type, and we need to upgrade a D type for FTMS support, the upgrade cards SKU's are defined and the installation cards are supported by the Veritas Appliances Team, BUT we don´t know if, as part of procedure, we need to execute an appliance factory reset or the installation is transparent, only install the cards in the respective slots and reboot de appliance.

NSS 10 upgrade fails
Hello again, Has anyone tried upgrading to NSS 10 from NSS 9.0 already? My attempt failed during adapter upgrade on portal server with: "error : Unable to find or remove existing NSS Certificate Done building project "InstallAdapterUrls.proj -- FAILED. Build FAILED." We use two-server install. What is interesting is the fact that afterwards the NSS appears to work as expected, but we cant be sure if there are now any hidden issues caused by this. Any ideas?
NetBackup 7.5.0.6 (NetBackup 7.5 Maintenance Release 6) is now available!
(This is a crosspost from the Netting Out NetBackup blog) I'm very pleased to announce that the next Maintenance Release for NetBackup 7.5 is now available! NetBackup 7.5.0.6 is the sixth maintenance release for NetBackup 7.5. It is a cumulative release containing fixes and content from 7.5.0.1 through 7.5.0.5. In addition, this release contains almost 600 additional fixes (bringing the total fixes in 7.5.0.6 to over 1700!) including the most commonly downloaded EEBs, several customer escalations, and internal engineering defects. NetBackup 7.5.0.6 includes the following proliferations and enhancements: YES, Windows Server 2012/8 is now supported! db2 10.1 (snapshot support; streaming support was added in 7.5.0.5) Exchange 2013 Hyper-V 2012 SharePoint 2013 SAP HANA client support - see this blog post for more information To download 7.5.0.5, please visit the following page: NetBackup 7.5.0.6 Download Links http://symantec.com/docs/TECH204644 (link is fixed - sorry about that!) This is a MAINTENANCE Release for NetBackup (as opposed to a Release Update) - it can ONLY be applied on top of NetBackup 7.5. (If you are currently running 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.1, or 7.1.0.x, you will need to upgrade to 7.5 before you can apply 7.5.0.6.) Please note that maintenance releases are CUMULATIVE - that means that 7.5.0.6 contains all product fixes included in 7.5.0.1, 7.5.0.2, 7.5.0.3, 7.5.0.4 AND 7.5.0.5. If you are currently running NetBackup 7.5, you may apply the 7.5.0.6 maintenanace release without installing 7.5.0.1, 7.5.0.3, 7.5.0.4 or 7.5.0.5. In fact, if you are still running NetBackup 7.5, we would HIGHLY encourage applying 7.5.0.6! To check to see if your particular Etrack is resolved in NetBackup 7.5.0.6, please refer to these Release Notes: NetBackup 7.5.0.6 Release Notes http://symantec.com/docs/DOC6396 The NetBackup 7.5 Late Breaking News has also been updated to reflect newly released fixes in 7.5.0.6 for some of our highest visibility issues: NetBackup 7.5 Late Breaking News http://symantec.com/docs/TECH178334 --Appliance Upgrade Readiness Analyzer (AURA) and System Load
Please disregard. I posted this in the wrong forum by mistake. I have reposted in the NetBackup Appliance forum. Thanks, Jason Can you run the AURA while the system is performing backups and replications? In checking my schedules, I don't seem to have a time when one or more of each aren't running. Thanks all. Jason
First time upgrading - checking my steps
Hi All Looking to do my first EV upgrade, normally this has been actioned by another colleague who has since retired. Currently we're on EV 12.1.2 and looking to go to 12.5.3. Our environment is: 4x Win2012 servers (2 x storage/task servers and 2 x indexing servers), SQL 2012 server, Storage is handled by CIF shares. We're currently running onprem Exchange 2016 servers. We don't use EV reporting, discovery or any smtp/journal archiving Pre-change: Confirm backups of application servers and SQL Confirm AV off Confirm disk space Run deployment scanner check Get new clients packaged ready to deploy Change Day: Stop all EV services and set to manual Check all MSMQ are empty Copy and backup EV folder for webapp.ini and web.config files Upgrade all 4 servers but DO NOT reboot until all are done Run cmdlet Start-EVDatabaseUpgrade to upgrade SQL db 12.5.3 install on all 4 servers a) have I got the above steps correct? b) my previous colleague would also put the Vault Stores in Backup mode, is this necessary since I'm stopping the EV services and changing them to Manual startup for the duration? c) he also noted something about Check Statistics have been dropped on Vault SQL Databases, what is this? d) Do I need to upgrade OWA extensions on each Exchange server as well? e) the client app deployment is handled by another team, does it matter if the server is 12.5.3 but the client is 12.1.2 for a short duration? f) any other step I'm missing? Thanks in advance.
