Hi Karl-
For 6.5 GA installs of LiveUpdate:
Unix: it's on the 6.5 Options CD, you need to install it separately.
Windows: as you note, it's part of the default install.
And yes, the 6.5.4 patch release includes some liveupdate fixes, that's
what's in the NB_LUA_6.5.4_326410.tar tarball.

John-
What kinds of problems did you have when you first tried this?
Here are the notes I took when I last set up LU, setting it up on 6.5GA and
then patching to 6.5.1.
1) Set up the a disk share to store the LiveUpdate bundles. When you
configure the NetBackup LiveUpdate Agent you must specify

David-
I bet you're running into a side effect of the fact that solaris10 wasn't
actually a supported client platform until 5.1 MP2.
To get around this, I would suggest the following sequence:
1. install base 5.1GA
2. patch the base 5.1GA to 5.1MP6
3. install 5.1GA options
4. patch the 5.1GA
This thread is pretty much deceased, but I thought I would resurrect
it briefly to point out that the latest entry to the official
NetBackup blog (did you know that there was an official NetBackup
blog? Me neither, until last week...) happens to conclude with the
following statement:

I have a linux master server that is running 6.5GA, and when I

well, bppllist is just parsing the data that it finds in
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/class/*
so depending on the amount / nature of the data you're trying to
extract, you could roll your own with cross-platform setuid
scripting of some sort.
not something I'd recommend, but technically feasible and

I bet you're pretty busy right about now ;-)
The DST impact upon NetBackup can be summarized thusly:
(1) chance of missed backups (note that this isn't new to 2007, it's an old
bug...)
a backup job with just the wrong set of attributes (including but not
limited to a schedule with a sunday
Just as an FYI...
It's my understanding that this scheduling problem is NOT a result of
the DST changes that start this year. This risk of a missed backup job
existed last spring, and the spring before that, and the spring before
that...
So it's nice that it's finally going to be fixed.
Hello Richard-
When your vault job failed, what was the status code?
I know that there was a problem in 6.0 where the scheduler
was incorrectly restarting a partially successful vault
job, e.g. a vault job that exited with a status 306 because
not all of the images were successfully duplicated.
There is one sentence that confuses me about Ms. Fisher's
recent CW article:
One major issue Veritas users cited with NetBackup 6.0 is
that when a backup job indicates it's complete, it often has
only backed up 1K files, so there's no data to restore.
Whoa, that DOES sound scary. Backed

Try using the inventory robot option (aka vmupdate)
instead of vltinject.
