The question was about support for 64-bit Windows and if you read the documented you pointed to, you'll see that 64-bit binaries on 64-bit Windows is *NOT* supported for servers with 5.x. You can run 32-bit Windows on a 64-bit machine but that's not what the original posted asked. 64-bit NetBackup server binaries on 64-bit Windows requires 6.x. .../Ed > >>> Ed Wilts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 5/30/2006 8:51 PM >>> > On Tue, May 30, 2006 at 02:38:16PM -0400, Patricia Harmon wrote: > > I have NetBackup running 5.1 MP4 on Windows master and media > servers. > > I am upgrading the media servers hardware only and would like to use > > 64 bit.

Ed, You may want to take another peek at the 5.x OS compatibility list. http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/NetBackup_Enterprise_Server/263839.pdf at the top of page 3 (ending on page 5) there are lists for several flavors of Linux OS that are compatible with 5.1 "servers" (which also includes media servers) using, among others, AMD64 based systems. I'm currently using an HP DL385 AMD64 Opteron based system as a media server at 5.1 MP4 with no problems or issues.

This is not supported. 64-bit is only supported for clients on 5.1, notmedia servers. To have 64-bit media servers, you'll need to upgrade to6.0. This is what we're doing for the same reason... .../Ed-- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USAmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]___V! eritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.eduhttp://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

[Veritas-bu] NetBackup 5.1 Windows master at 32 bit and NetBackup 5.1 media servers at 64 bit
I have NetBackup running 5.1 MP4 on Windows master and media servers. I am upgrading the media servers hardware only and would like to use 64 bit. Does anyone know if this is supported or know of problems? I see from the release notes 64 bit is supported on Windows but I don't know if a media server can be at higher OS level than the master server. Thanks for any help.
