Re: [Veritas-bu] FA for NetBackup 7

I agree, Ed. The same rep did tell me that the Java GUI will eventually go away. And since Ops Center will be/is web based, I would assume that would make the Windows Admin Console go away as well. I was glad to hear that the GUIs will be sticking around, as I had thought we were getting forced to use a new GUI after the entire life of the product (or most of it) using the classic GUI style.

On another note, I had been under the impression that OpsCenter (similar to NOM) was the new and only way to manage NetBackup. I was corrected by a Symantec Rep who stated that the classic Java GUI (and I would assume the classic Windows Admin Console) is still available. Just throwing that out there for anyone else who thought the same way I did.

My *guess* is that the older GUIs will eventually be phased out. It does not make sense for Symantec to have FOUR separate interfaces that all need to be continually updated (CLI, Java, Windows Admin Console, OpsCenter). I personally think that we'll always have a CLI but that OpsCenter will replace the other two. I have no facts to back that up.
