You can shutdown NetBackup services an copy the veritas directory.
Do the update and if you want to rollback, uninstall 7.1, install 7.0.1
and after you shutdown NetBackup copy back the veritas directory.

My suggestion for this, is because I felt the 7.1 EMM may be at a
different level to the 7.0.

Hi Simon,

Thanks, it would be nice if there was an easier rollback, if I find one
I'll update the list.
