I tested backing up Virtual Machines via client installed on the VM when Hyper-V was in beta. There was no advanced "snapshot" type technology supported by anyone that I could find at the time.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6.5 Client is not validated
I've never seen this error either. I would suggest you check what user the client running as, and does that user have sufficient rights on the client. (or is the password expired) Enable the bpcd logging or increase verbosity to see if it gives you a more meaningful message. I can't see any restriction on the master server if you initiated restores from that console, but a global setting at the master server (under Client Attributes) can restrict a restore and a file browse at the client computer. p382 NB 6.5 Admin Guide 1 for Windows. -Jon - Original Message From: "Obenschain, Charles T." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Sent: Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:55:40 AM Subject: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 6.5 Client is not validated I am running Netbackup 6.5 on a windows server.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Migration Problem / Question Please
Renee, Not looking at this long term at all. Sooner I can move the SSO SAN boxes over the 6.5, the better. Not possible to made SAN Media Servers as clients at this stage. Ideally it would only be for restores, but it would only be short term. When upgrading a Media Server, will the 6.5 setup still require a new license key for EACH media Server, or is it clever enough to know this is going to be an upgraded box?

While you technically can run a 5.1 media server in a 6.5 environment, you wouldn't want to for very long. Personally, in an SSO environment..I wouldn't want to do it at all. If you did...I think you would need to build your new env as 5.1 including all the SSO media servers and then upgrade the new environment. You may want to think about making some/all of the SSO SAN media servers SAN Clients in the new environment.

I have been unable to find any help on this, and wanted to see if anyone could advise or shed any light on this. Current Environment 5.1 MP5 Master + Many SSO SAN Media Servers I am geting a brand new system, all licensed and new hardware / robot for 6.5. At this stage, due to issues, I am not planning to "upgrade" 5.1 at this time. I want to migrate the clients to the new system, and I have a plan to do this for the majority of the clients, except the SAN SSO Clients. My question is as follows: If I have a SAN SSO Media Client at 5.1 MP5, could I simply "point" this client to my new 6.5 Master Server? I ask this, because during the migration, there may be a need for a restore. As its current Master is 5.1, it would be good if I could simply restore back from the 5.1 environment, but backup to the new 6.5 environment. I recall that the command "nbpushdata -modify_5_x_hosts" needs to be run if you are "not" upgrading a 5.1 Media Server. Could anyone advise?

[Veritas-bu] Netbackup security policies
I would like to give certain server admin's permission to only restore their own server(s) Can this be achived with Access Management within Netbackup? (using the Symantec Authorization services etc) The Netbackup Security and Encryption Guide has information about this, but it remains unclear if it's possible to assign certain servers to users.
