New NetBackup Veritas Certified Specialist (VCS) exams now available!
Veritas Education Services is in the process of updating all the Veritas Certified Specialist (VCS) high-stakes certification exams. I’m very excited to announce that the first two exams available for registration are the VCS-282: Veritas NetBackup 9.1 Administrator and the VCS-283: Veritas NetBackup 9.1 and NetBackup Appliance 4.1 Administrator exams. These exams are designed to target candidates in an administrative role and measure competencies of core elements such as configuration, product administration, day-to-day monitoring, maintenance, and basic troubleshooting (diagnosis and/or repair). Upon passing either of these exams, you’ll receive your associated certification and your digital badge that is awarded through our partner company, Credly. This award counts toward the requirements for your Veritas Certified Professional (VCP) certification in Data Protection. To see more details and learn how to prepare for taking these exams, visit the associated exam web page. On this page, you’ll see the passing score, the number of questions delivered on the exam, and suggested preparation. In addition, we created a Sample Exam that shows you the types of questions you’ll see on the exam and provides you with practice. You’ll also find an Exam Preparation Guide that matches the exam objectives to courseware and other documentation that you can study to prepare for passing the exam.

Recommendation required Upgrading NBU from V8.1.2 to V9.X.X best Stable version in VCS cluster
Dear Expert's, We would like to upgrade NBU V8.1.2 hosted in Redhat cluster with Infoscale Cluster solution, We have heavy & critical workloads, can you suggest which is the stable version we should be moving for smooth operations with VCS. Thank you.Veritas NetBackup certification advice
I have been thinking for sometime now about the Veritas NetBackup certification. I have been managing 3 NetBackup domains for more than 3yrs now. Even though my employer does not require me to pass the certification, I think it would be definitely a feather in the cap and also a good way to have a thorough review of administration and troubleshooting. From Curriculum path design, I think the VCS-274* should be my objective. I was thinking of reviewing the Administration Vol1 & 2 and Troubleshooting guide for the preparation. However, is there any resource where I can sample questions to gague where I current knowledge stands? E.g. 2 or 3 practice tests of even half the size of actual test would be nice. For those who have taken the exam for certification, and I know there are quite a few names of this community which come to mind, what pointers do you suggest for prospective students? * - Or is it VCS-275, as "Administration of Veritas NetBackup" bubble links to VCS-275, which has the title "VCS-275: Administration of Veritas NetBackup 7.7 and NetBackup Appliances 2.7".
