James You would need to uninstall the patch on the Master, and potentially, reapply a Catalog backup from your environment that was not patched. But if its one client causing a problem, dont update the client, rather than goto the effort of rolling back? Or have I missed something. Simon

Until I get it resolved, I would like to roll the master/media server back to 6.5, from 6.5.6. What are the steps to do this? I am running Windows Server 2003.

In my view, upgrade to NBU 7.0 Before going to Win2k8, get a GOOD Backup of the System (as it is) and a Catalog Backup of your "current working" environment :-) Upgrade to Win2k8 - You should find that NBU would not have changed. Can confirm the policies have not changed or amended in my environment. I would suggest going to 7.0.1 or if possible, 7.1 now. That is the only suggestion. Should things go completely wrong, at least you can "roll back".

II Sent: Friday, March 18, 2011 5:46 PM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Server OS and NBU upgrades Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with upgrading from Windows Server 2003 to 2008 and NBU 6.5 to 7.0? Currently my backup server is running the older versions of both. I have the software to upgrade both of them. Is there a preferred sequence: upgrade NBU then the OS or upgrade the OS first and then NBU? When upgrading NBU, will it preserve the settings and policies already created?
