Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup 6.5.3 - What is your experience?

I have problems with nbjm with a windows master server.

Nbjm is restarting itself every 3 hours. All running jobs are failing with error 50

I open a case to symantec

So far so good. Windows 2003 SP2 Environment with 1 Master/Media and another Media server writing to LT03 drives.

Pros

Installed without issue

Fixed Issue with admin Console not refreshing automatically. (Formerly fixed by Refresh All)

First weekend of full backups completed without issue.

Cons

Had a strange issue where after killing destaging / duplication jobs from a dssu the "parent" job wouldn't die. Had to recycle the server to kill. I've had this issue before so it could just be a fluke.

Pending Testing

VMWare VCS Flashbackup

Exchange Mailbox Restore (single mailbox)

Sharepoint Document Level Restore

NDMP Testing

I'm hoping to try out all the new features ASAP but given the short week (gobble gobble) it will probably have to wait for December.

NetBackup 6.5.3 has recently entered into a First Availability program. We in NetBackup development are excited with the comments and results we’ve seen with this new version in production and in test systems. What has been your experience?
