I don't think so.  With versions of Oracle previous to 8i the libobk.so
libraries were linked into Oracle which might have been a problem for
updating the NetBackup Agent for Oracle from the master server, but I
have not had problems with the UNIX client update and the Oracle linking
is simpler from 8i up.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Updating UNIX clients from the master server.



All,

One more question. Is anyone aware of a problem updating UNIX clients
running Oracle 8 from the master server? I have been told that Oracle
holds some of the lib files open so the update can not succeed. Is this
true?

Regards,
