Gents, It looks like this limitation is not that critical. I had a word with my local SE and he has confirmed this limitation only affects installations which use AWS OST plug-ins outside of the US region. Everyone else can upgrade from 7.5.0.7 to 7.6.0.1, no worries. Best regards, Mikhail O

I was curious about this as it didn't sound right. But Mikhail is correct. >From the technote: - If you are currently running NetBackup 7.5.0.5 or earlier, your upgrade path is to NetBackup 7.6 GA. - If you are currently running NetBackup 7.5.0.6 and you do not use Amazon S3 cloud sto

The only caveat of the 7.5.0.7 patch is that you can't upgrade 7.5.0.7 to 7.6 yet. So, if anyone is planning upgrade to 7.6 soon - do not install 7.5.0.7 Best regards, Mikhail On 28/01/2014 8:35 am, "tsimerson" wrote: > Finally able to get to Symantec web sites. The issue with the TIR pruning

Finally able to get to Symantec web sites. The issue with the TIR pruning not working correctly is isolated to 7.5.0.6. There is a specific EEB that you can get to patch either NBU 7.5.0.6 or appliance version 2.5.3. The other solution is to patch up to NBU 7.5.0.7 or appliance version 2.5.4.

Actually, there are two significant database changes. The EMM database is being upgraded from Sybase 11 to Sybase 12. This is one of the causes for lengthy upgrades. This process (I believe) is to actually dump the database, upgrade Sybase and then reload the database. This is where if you h

I've heard there is an issue with Client Direct and Accelerator enabled backups that will fail if the Media servers are at 7.6.0.1 but the clients are 7.5 or 7.1. The workaround, as I've heard it, is to upgrade the clients to 7.6.0.1 to resolve the issue, don't patch the media servers yet, or turn

We've upgraded a test lab appliance from 2.5.3 to 2.6.0.1 (7.6.0.1 NBU version). Only had problems with the Self Test portion, which seems to happen every time. Once we worked out those issues, the patch went through just fine. Plan to start production upgrades next week. On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at

Anyone upgraded from NBU v7.5.x or Appliance v2.5.2 to 7.6.0.1 and 2.6.0.1 respectively? Patching for the NBU piece reads as not complicated - straight up patch. The Appliance piece I've not had a chance to look into yet. Looking for tips and issues. Thanks, Scott ___
