Re: [Veritas-bu] Reg: update MP4 patch to multiple client at a time

All the Netbackup install packages come in Microsoft Scripted Install (.msi) 
files.  Any one of a number of management utilities can install these and 
report on them.  I've personally used Active Directory, SMS and Unicenter SD to 
deploy them but there's tons of other options available.  If you are looking 
for more of a scripted install approach checkout msiexec.exe to call the .msi 
in the package location.  I'm a bit leery of LiveUpdate from my history with 
Symantec Antivirus.  If it works that "well" I'm definitely going to find a way 
to turn it off, destroy and/or delete it.

For Windows, the best option appears to wait until 6.5 - the clients then use 
LiveUpdate to update themselves.

Hello 

 

For your UNIX clients you can use the update_clients command to update the 
netbackup client code and the update_dbclients netbackup command to update the 
netbackup agent code. 

 

So to update all the clients running hp-ux11.11 on the  HP9000-800 boxes run 
the following command.  

 

update_clients HP9000-800 HP-UX11.11

 

I do not know how to update the windows clients from an UNIX master. Our 
windows server folks have a tool that can install the netbackup  install 
package on a series of windows servers.

Hi

 

Netbackup 6.0 Mp4 is installed in Master Server (solaris server). I need to 
update MP4 to  all the clients one at a time. Is there is any command to push 
MP4 from the master server to all the clients.

 

Regards

Hemalatha.N.R
