Hello, One of the features of 6.5 that we were anxious to try out was the use of LiveUpdate to push out patches. We run a Solaris master, so managing the UNIX clients was always easy, but the Windows clients were often lagging behind with their updates. Upon playing with LiveUpdate I stumbled upon the initial problem of no LiveUpdate format packages being available, but as of last week Symantec now has the necessary .zip files available on the public ftp server.
IMO the GUI is a horrible botch for managing the LiveUpdate policies though, so I opened a case asking if there were any command line options to manage these policies. Good news, bpplclients will do it, albeit with an undocumented qualifier: Examples: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpplclients <policy name> -internal -add <client name> <hardware> <os> /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpplclients -internal -allunique When you have lots of clients to manage, this should be a big win over using the GUI. --Larry -- Larry Fahnoe, Fahnoe Technology Consulting, [EMAIL PROTECTED] 952/925-0744 Minneapolis, Minnesota www.FahnoeTech.com _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
