[Veritas-bu] Netbackup SAP backup script
Hi Are there any naming convention rules on scripts created to backup the archive logs? I've come across the following problem: - When initiating a backup it fails with error 29 (failed trying to execute a command). - The script it calls is named: brarchive_svc.cmd (brarchive being a command) - When you rename this script to test.cmd it works perfectly.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6 upgrade - special policy types
Upgrade your master server and media servers to 5.x. Put the latest 5.x patch. Work your installation to see if there is any problem. My opinion is to stay there. If you want to upgrade, open a case to veritas to check your database. When finish upgrade your master server to 6.0MP4. Then your media servers. Finally upgrade your clients and agents directly from 4.5 to 6.0MP4. Read carefully the installation manual, and the technote http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/285590.htm Also take a look to http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/285223.htm Finally have the veritas tech phones near to you when upgrading: http://support.veritas.com/phonesup/phonesup_ddProduct_.htm ---Original Message--- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6 upgrade - special policy types Sent: May 30 '07 21:48 Hi All, We are upgrading our environment from Netbackup 4.5 to 6.0, Can someone please provide me the steps that i need to follow for the upgradation.

Go to support.veritas.com, then NetBackup Enterprise Server, then the big box in the middle of the page, the NetBackup 6.0 Upgrade Portal. Everything you need to know is there, and there is a _lot_ to know to do a quality job. Happy reading.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6 upgrade - special policy types
Abhishek, One important thing to be aware of is cluster configuration. If your master server is clustered, this may be a much hardeer upgrade and you may really want to look at consulting. Version 5.1 and above significantly changed the way NBU works with clustered master servers. I don't know if you are clustered or not, but something to really watch for.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6 upgrade - special policy types
Seconded on the cluster stuff. We upgraded from 4.5 to 5.1 a couple years ago, and the changes for a clustered environment were significant. We have a support contract with Veritas, and made use of it for that upgrade. They sent me a pdf document that contained lessons tech support learned from others doing that upgrade. That document was of tremendous assistance in that upgrade. I'm preparing to upgrade our test environment from 5.1 to 6.0MP4 next week. The key here is *preparation* -- don't even consider doing the upgrade without investing the time to be thoroughly prepared. Jack L.
