Martin, I checked the files I downloaded, and the 6.5.2 was indeed the A version. NB_6.5.2A.solaris_x86_305652.tar The other necessary patch files (client, java, ndmp) were applied, and were the correct version. The files I used on the sparc version I'll have to check later. Sun is working on

If you're at 6.5.2, there's really no point in applying 6.5.2A. The only incremental difference between the two is documented in TN 304269: http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/304269.htm So, if you haven't been affected by the STREAMS (AKA Incrementals as Fulls) problem documented there and

Does anyone know where i can find compatibility with a new Sun SL24 unit and Netbackup v5.0MP7 on Solaris 8. I'm having no joy on the sunsolve site. Will the normal sg driver be able to see it? It will be using LTO3 drives. Cheers Martin Ruslan wrote: Hi Jon, I've looked to the NBU6.5

I think you just need to change the barcode...not the mediaid. You can do something like vmchange -barcode 01951 -m 001951 to associate the new barcode with the old mediaid. Media ids don't actually have anything to do with the barcode. It just so happens that netbackup bases the media I'd off

Here you go. Before attempting to use Netbackup with HP-UX 11.31 a customer should first install the HP-UX 11.31 patch bundle from March 2008 and then apply HP-UX 11.31 patch PHKL-37455. Hope that helps you. +-- |This was

Is the SL24 the FC or SCSI one? Generally though once the device is available to the OS, NetBackup should be able to use it. The MPT Driver problem listed here is more of a Solaris 10 issue then a Solaris 8 issue, so you should be fine. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've tested this only for the catalog itself (i.e. veritas\netbackup\db\images) and it works fine. The only downside of this is that your volume database dosen't make the transtition - when you load the media into the new host they will all look like scratch / the media are no assigned as they

To add that client you need to remove your MP4 client patch. Then re-run the 51GA client install and choose to install your specific clients, or all clients. Then reapply the mp4 client patch. You should be able to push then.
