It occurs to me I may have left out a critical piece of the puzzle. I acquired 
my NetBackup via Sun Microsystems when I acquired the hardware. Naturally, it's 
packaged differently and although I know I put some maintenance on within the 
last 6 months, there is no /usr/openv/patch directory nor does the support 
script show anything that I can relate to being a patch. I may have to ask Sun 
"How do I know what's on". Thanks for the advice though. I guess it would be 
blatantly obvious in the support script output wouldn't it? I mean, it wouldn't 
be cryptic and I'd have to search for it?

Regards,
Dennis

Dennis,

Go through the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/support script,
it will show you where the patch information is stored.  Infact,
run it and read the output.

As for the patch in question, sorry no Novell here ;)
