If you have a support partner, engage them.  if you deal with Verantec 
(Veritas+Symantec) directly, you may have to re-open the case.


I get support through DLT (and provide them with very strange problems) 
and they do a pretty good job engaging Veritas and following up.

It looks like that might be the case…

 

 

On another note, does anyone know what became of the bug reports?
 Here’s the last one I got:

 

Dear Neil Conner, 

Your subscription to "Technical Solution [ NetBackup Enterprise Server
]" has been updated in SymWISE.
The following updates have been made since 04/14/2015.

BUG REPORT: After an update of the OpenStorage (OST) plug-in to
version 2.2.1.1, NetBackup may report status code 129 and "EMM status:
Insufficient disk space or High Water Mark would be exceeded Disk
storage unit is full(129)" more frequently due to a change in the
method of calculation of free space on the storage unit.

NB_7.0.1_ET2085566_1.zip is a NetBackup 7.0.1 Hotfix for NetBackup

I am thinking a couple of things may have happened.

 

1  First, the keeper of this may have moved on thus
resulting in an obsolete and eventually unmonitored and closed
off email distro list. 

 

2  Secondary thoughts are companies may have drifted
away from using backup software in general or the interest in
having a dedicated person for backup has dropped considerably
with VMware and cloud technologies such as AWS and Microsoft
Azure making tape backup strategies an obsolete thought in those
companies IT leadership minds.

I know I've been gone for a while, but I was surprised to see
the
archives stopped in 2016.

Did something happen I don't know about?
