I need a solution

Hi,

I have problem to download the 7.5.0.7 patch from the symantec website (the .exe file within technote 209033) but it fails to get response.

NB_7.5.0.7.winnt.x86.exe provides fixes for NetBackup 7.5 on 32-bit Windows server and clients.
www.symantec.com/docs/TECH209033
 

Anyone has the same problem? Wonder if the link is still valid?

Otherwise, can I please get some advise where I can get the patch besides the mentioned link?

Much appreciated.

Thank you.

Backup Exec 2012 SP4 Update

I need a solution

Hi all,

I have BEX 2012 V14.0 Rev 1798 x64 w/ SP1 and the last hotfix 205111.  When I try to run live update I continuously get and errors that prevent the downloaded decompressed content to install.  I'd like to try to install the updates manually.  I have accessed the product download site and entered my serial number, but the only things listed are the Backup_Exec_2012_14.0_SP4_MultiPlatforms_Multilingual.zip files.  This produces a full install version of BEX 2012 sp4 but I can't seem to find just the SP4 update install file (or whatever files I may need to install in sequence, eg. SP2, SP3, etc).  

BTW, LU Error: 1812 and 1806..A program that was part of this update failed with it ran.  This update was not applied -And- LU downloaded all of the updates you requested but all of them failed to install.  Please...try at a later time.  I have plenty of space on the C: drive, where the downloads would be saving to, etc.

tnx..

Limit tape drives used for a restore

I need a solution

I know how to limit the number of tape drives used in backup operations but is there is way to limit the number of drives used for restores?

A restore that got submitted yesterday (it happened to be a RMAN restore) used 4 of our 8 drives.  Is there a way within Netbackup that I could have limited this to perhaps 2 drives active at a time?

I have no access to the RMAN side of things.

NetBackup KMS when appliance is master/media?

$
0

I need a solution

Hi,

Master/media NB5230 v2.6.0.1, and FC to LTO6 drives in HP MSL 2024.

I know how to setup and configure NetBackup KMS.  At this point in time I'm not interested in MSEO.

The Appliance v2.6.0.1 Admin Guide, on page 106, says:

"The NetBackup appliance supports writing to the tape devices that are capable of SCSI T10 encryption to ensure that the tape media that is moved off-site is secure. Tape encryption requires configuration the NetBackup Key Management Service (KMS) feature.
Note: The KMS feature is supported when the appliance is configured as a media server only in a NetBackup domain. A NetBackup master server appliance cannot administrate KMS. A non-appliance master server is required to administrate KMS with the devices that are connected to a NetBackup appliance."

 

Obviously it is quite clear that:

- NetBackup KMS on appliance master            not supported   (because it cannot see tape drives)

- NetBackup KMS on appliance media             supported         (because it can see tape drives)

But, can I infer that this is true:

- NetBackup KMS on appliance master/media  supported       (because it can see tape drives)

...because the appliance (although acting as a master server) is also acting as a media server.

 

However, this would conflict with '...is supported when the appliance is configured as a media server only...'

And here grammar can get in the way - is NetBackup KMS supported on media appliances 'only' when in a NetBackup domain?  If so, then is NetBackup KMS supported on master/media servers because the media server function is a member of a NetBackup domain, i.e. the master function on the same appliance?

I wish the document made a statement regarding appliances that are 'master/media'.

Thanks.

SSR2013 creates unscheduled Base Recovery Points

Why is my system creating unscheduled Base Recovery Points. I have my backup job set to run every day and do 5 incrementals each day. A new Base Recovery Point should only be created the first day of the new month. For some reason I am getting new Base Recovery Points several times in a month. I am running Windows 8.1 update 1 as a standard user. I do hibernate my system each evening and do a shutdown or restart occasionally.

How to add Windows Client packages to fresh NB5220 v2.6.0.1?

I need a solution

Have just installed a virtual NB5220 from v2.6.0.1 ISO.  Configured as master.  All seems ok.

Opened browser to WebAdmin GUI, but Windows client kit is not available for download from master.

How do I make a Windows Client available for download from the appliance?

I guess I'm after something a bit like the v2.6.0.2 Windows Client addon package named:

     SYMC_NBAPP_addon_nbwin-7.6.0.2-SLES11.x86_64.rpm

...but I obviously need the v2.6.0.1 equivalent.

Any ideas?

Is it correct to infer that Appliance v2.6.0.2 no longer supports vSphere ESX v4.1?

$

I need a solution

Just sharing something that a partner pointed out to me the other day, which I did add it as a potential answer to question in the main forum - but I think it's worth re-iterating and seeking clarification here...

 

Page 15 of the NetBackup VMware compatibility doc:
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH64542
...says that v7.6.0.2 (and v7.6.0.1 with EEB EEB3318872) was built with VDDK 5.5.

The VDDK 5.5 Release Notes:
https://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vddk/vddk-550-releasenotes.html
...doesn't list support for anything below vSphere v5.0U3.

 

And this is where I make the assumption that VADP is built using VDDK - and so this implies that neither NetBackup v7.6.0.2 nor Appliance v2.6.0.2 will work with vSphere ESX 4.x hosts (and nor NetBackup v7.6.0.1 with EEB3318872 and nor Appliance v2.6.0.1 with EEB3318872).  Are both the assumption and the inference correct?

 

FYI - Re EEB3318872 referenced above, there is more detail (and a workaround) here:

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?pag...

Can a running Backup Exec job cause a "locked for editing by another user" message?

$

I need a solution

Hi,

One of my users was getting random messages of "locked for editing by another user" when she tried to open Office documents on the server share.

This happend randomly. When she tried again later it would be OK. Then it might happen again with another file. We're pretty sure no one else would have opened those files.

I checked that a Backup Exec backup job was running at the time. It is possibe that the backup job just happened to have locked the files at the time?

VSS is used in the backup job.

-Windows Server 2008 R2

-Windows 7

-Backup Exec 2010 R3

Thanks!
