Hi Richard.
Yes what you say is true, but 4.5 is going out of support this summer. This
means that up to then are issues are suported. I suppose that most issues
regarding NT (since NT has been rather static for some years) have been
resolved. But it's not a matter of implementation, but rather that many
people don't have a choice. Many applications have been designed for some
platform, then dumped by the designers. leaving the customer haning over the
edge of a cliff.
And you always have to backup......
Regards,
Jim

Mark and Jim
Be aware that using clients older then one generation may work, you may run
into what I have. I have several SCO Openserver 5 clients running the
NetBackup 3.4 client software on them. I just upgraded our Master/Media
server from 4.5 FP 6 to 5.1 MP 4. Now, I am able to back the servers up,
but do to a difference in coding, I get an error on restores and then the
restore just hangs out there. I have to manually kill the job. Through
testing, I have found I can restore the backups to a Solaris 8 box then ftp
them to the SCO box.
In short, unsupported clients may work, but do not count on it without
testing before implementation.

I have a 3.4 HPUX client on a 5.0 Master. Although Veritas says not
supported, it doesn't mean it doesn't work. Your problem will be only if you
need support.
Regards,
Jim

NT4 is no longer supported as a client for backup using Netbackup v6.0. Will
I be able to continue to backup my NT4 clients using client software version
4.5 FP6 and Netbackup Master server version 6.0.
Thanks, Mark
