Re: [Veritas-bu] Rollback to 6.0 Plan, in case 6.5 flakes out

I do not think you'll have any issues with 6.0 to 6.5. The (main) problem was the database conversion done when going to 6.x from a pre 6.0 versoin. With that said, I think a catalog backup and a copy of your /usr/openv directory should be sufficient.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Rollback to 6.0 Plan, in case 6.5 flakes out

Hello all,
I am planning on upgrading my NetBackup servers from 6.0 MP4 to 6.5 and I am wondering if there is a roll back to 6.0 option? Is it enough to back up the c:\Program Files\VERITAS or /usr/openv directories to a new location and put them back in case of a water landing?

I was going to ghost/flash archive the boxes, but that seems like a bit of overkill.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks,
Kyle
