Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Windows Java GUI for the Admin Console
Bob, I have to disagree with you, for once. You can only use the java version with that same major revision; it is not backwards compatible to other revision levels (6.5 is not backwards compatible to 6.0 or lower, etc.). The java client is forward and backwards compatible within the same major revision - for the most part, there are things that may not work/populate if the Master is at a higher level than the Java client. I made this suggestion for backwards compatibility at the users forum, but it didn't sound like there would be much work put into it as the new user interface will take care of this. As stated, installing them to separate directories does the trick when multiple java versions/patch levels are needed on the same workstation. If you are not able to change the install directory, edit this key in the registry to contain the path that you want to install to: HKLM\Software\VERITAS\NetBackup - java (NB-Java)\InstallPath Rusty Major, MCSE, BCFP, VCS ▪ Sr. Storage Engineer ▪ SunGard Availability Services ▪ 757 N.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Windows Java GUI for the Admin Console
Mr Major said: Bob, I have to disagree with you, for once. It's okay; I'm not invested in it. :-) And thanks for the implied kudo. You can only use the java version with that same major revision; and The java client is forward and backwards compatible within the same major revision - for the most part, there are things that may not work/populate if the Master is at a higher level than the Java client. I'm fine with that. That in my experience it seems backwards-compatible within all levels of 5.1, within all levels of 5.0, within all levels of 6.5 is what I at least _meant_ to convey with IME, all patch/MP versions are backwards compatible within that major version (5.1, 6.0, 6.5). it is not backwards compatible to other revision levels (6.5 is not backwards compatible to 6.0 or lower, etc.). And that's the part I didn't know about (never tried it) but thought mightt work: It's possible, even likely, that each major version understands the previous versions Not as likely as I'd thought, apparently. Now we know that it's possible, but not true. :-) Thanks for clearing that up, Rusty. -Original Message- From: rusty.ma...@sungard.com [mailto:rusty.ma...@sungard.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 6:00 PM To: bob...@attglobal.net Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu; veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Windows Java GUI for the Admin Console Bob, I have to disagree with you, for once.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Windows Java GUI for the Admin Console
Remember to follow the rules. Master server and gui have to be the same level and same or higher then anything else. Media servers and clients and be lower then the master and the gui. If you have to have more then one version the install the console versions in different places and run the one you need. -Original Message- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Dennis Peacock Sent: Thursday, January 01, 2009 8:13 AM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] NBU 6.5.3 Windows Java GUI for the Admin Console Thanks, but I need to be able to support multiple versions...like 6.0, 6.5, 6.5.2, and 6.5.3 as well as Legato 7.x and Backup Express 2.3x and 3.x +-- |This was sent by dpe...@acxiom.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu

I know I used the 6.5.3 JAV to connect to 6.5.2 because 6.5.2 JAV had a bug so we installed it early.
