Re: [Veritas-bu] Reducing Netbackup reserved ports on the masterserver

Well if you willing to spare a lot of time with veritas support, to have VxSS working properly, then install it. My experience with this product is tragic. Even if you manage to pen the console, some commands doesn’t work

This is my opinion.

If you use nbu 6.x you have to  open only 2 ports, 4 if you want to use security (NO, DO NOT USE IT)
