I think you have to upgrade the license key to a 5.x license key before
you do the upgrade. I had to upgrade all of the licenses at my last job
- http://licensing.symantec.com The licensing site will make you
upgrade them from 4x to 5x to 6x and each stage give you a new id. It's
a pretty cool site but since you're doing a three version upgrade - I
would imagine you would need all of the version of the licenses. At
each stage it will generate a new key for each license key that you
have. I would imagine you will have to add these in before the upgrade.
You will get a lot of Unknown features until you get to the 6.5 version
of the software.
Good luck with your upgrade - sounds like a very long weekend.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] upgrade licenses query
Dont shoot me down in flames but we still have a netbackup install here
at version 4.5mp6!! I know i know.
Anyway the customer is finally letting us upgrade to 6.5.4 and putting
their hands in their pockets.
My question is will the 4.5 licenses allow me to upgrade to version
5.0mp7 ? I will have new 6.5 licenses, but can't imaging they will work
with 5.0.
I'm just trying to think of any stoppers for the upgrade.
Regards
Dave
