Hi All
I have netbackup 6.0 installed in solaris box. I have two policies with 11
clients each . I have created a exclude_list.policyname and also
include_list.poilcyname in all the clients under the directory
/usr/openv/netbackup/ and also added respective entry, but it is not excluding
We've been running Aptare's StorageConsole for several years. The install
is fairly easy and if you need help, Aptare will help you. I'm guessing
that the install was done in an hour or two. Configuration is trivial - the
hardest part, if you choose to make it so, is setting up the server groups

Hi
Sounds exactly like what we are about to start. Except we are using windows
(dodgy). My research indicates the sybase facilities are not documented so
that we can't play with the innards. What disappoints me is there seems to
be no data replication to a remote database. I suspect not all
Given the wintel background of Symantec you thought it would have been done
by now.
Likewise for master server & EMM server running on VMWARE. It substantially
simplies high availability.

All,
Is anyone running their NOM server on a VM (linux or windows)? I was at
a conference last week at Symantec and they did a demo of the product

As we all know there is a well-known issue of the NetBackup
Administration Console and having multiple users running at the same
time. I decided to set about creating a wrapper program for our
environment and have succeeded in creating a version 0.1 of the program
which we are currently testing.
Nevermind...you need to ensure all your NetBackup Services are
runningDUH
Thanks

I've only ever been able to do this from the command line -- you may want to
set up a batch file if you have a lot of tapes to do all at once. I know a
lot of changes were made with version 6, but I got so used to using the
command line, I'm not sure it's a GUI feature now.

Got the solution -- turns out that there was a stranded Terminal Services
session open. Nothing showed up as having a console open, but for some reason,
the disconnected session was causing the problem.

Doing a catalog search, I find the same client backups, including ids that
are registered as copy 2, not primary. Updating to primary removes the
primary flag on the disk-resident images. So, I'm fairly certain that
they're on tape. Also, the DSSU jobs are running fine.

I am narrowing down my search for a reporting tool to these 2 products.
Does anybody have any experience with both of these?
How was the install and configuration? (length and complications)
Do they really do a good job of handling multiple backup software

How was support?

I'm hoping to get some feedback on the pros/cons of, differences and
similarities between, and experience with Symantec's "Sharepoint" agent
(for NBU 6) vs. the stock SQL agent, or with "other" agents that may
exist for Sharepoint.

Ok. I will do this manually. It's BPEXPDATE the only way, or is it possible to
