Re: [Veritas-bu] Compatibility
I'm pretty sure NBU 6.5 doesn't support any kernel earlier than 2.4. You appear to have an ancient 2.2 multiprocessor kernel. I'm assuming the version you posted is what is showing up in your uname -a output? 2.4 kernel was pretty much replaced by 2.6 kernel around 2006/2007 and only God knows how long ago the 2.2 kernel was still prevalent. Even the old RedHat (not RHEL) 7.3 boxes I inherited when I first got here in 2005 were already running 2.4 kernels. Note that what you posted is a kernel version and not the vendor version. What kind of Linux is this? Also your throughput may be simply due to the age of the hardware you're using. Given that you're using such an ancient version of Linux kernel I'm guessing you're using some really old hardware as well.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Compatibility
I can't speak to your specific linux kernel and I did not test with 6.5, but I specifically keep an old 5.1 master around to pickup my legacy 3.x and 4.5 NetBackup clients. In my testing, compatibility with 6.0 MP4 was mixed. Some older clients would work, others failed completely. The whole thing is unsupported, compatibility is probably mixed, and it could go down at any time. But, it's better than nothing. -Jonathan From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of pranav batra Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2011 9:58 AM To: Veritas Subject: [Veritas-bu] Compatibility Hello Team, We are running Netbackup 4.5FP_3ga on two linux boxes with verion Linux 2.2.7-1.23smp.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Compatibility
No clue. When I started here 5 years ago we were running 5.1 in production. I've handled the 6.0, 6.5, and soon 7.0 upgrades. I setup the legacy 5.1 master to pick up a bunch of orphaned clients from a dead 4.5 master another group managed. Occasionally while cleaning out an old storage closet, I will run into NetBackup boxed software for the 3 and 4 versions. I haven't seen anything older than that, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did. The situation is certainly not best practice, but I don't get to decide what gets upgraded and what languishes for 20+ years. -Jonathan -Original Message- From: Justin Piszcz [mailto:jpis...@lucidpixels.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2011 10:29 AM To: Martin, Jonathan Cc: pranav batra; Veritas Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Compatibility Hi Jon, Wow, legacy 3.x clients!!
