>From a general operational point of view, yes (ie. they easily 
interoperate).  But from a strict file distribution point of view, they 
are different.  If you're talking Unix (AIX, HP-UX, Solaris), then

        NB DataCenter 3.4.1   ==>    NB DataCenter 3.4GA   w/  patch 
J0850645 (or higher)

Since Veritas' jumbo patches (which J0850645 is) are cumulative, then 
patch NB_34_1 [which comes after J0850645] and NB_34_2 should also get to 
NB 3.4.1.   (and 'no', NB_34_2 does *not* give you 3.4.2).

If you're talking Windows and Linux, keep in mind that Veritas issued a 
separate CD for 3.4.1 for those two OSs.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Is 3.4GA the same as 3.4.1?


Is Netbackup 3.4GA (datacenter) the same as 3.4.1?
