NOM has some very nice features and after getting it up and running I was quite excited about the way it gathered data from all my remote sites. That was just about where all the excitement ended. Th

I also found out that NOM will not collect data from the 64-bit Netbackup… I am waiting for them to add compatibility so I can deploy NOM in my environment. I have used Aptare and it is a gre

Not likely he’d be pitching a product NOT sold by Symantec is it? Anyway I’ve heard that reporter is included in 6.x but many on this list will tell you Aptare is the premium way to go.

Jonathan, The reporting option in 6.0 is called NOM and it is included in your 6.0 base license. It will gather information from 5.1 master servers. http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:9U6ha-ZpH2YJ:

Greg, Great questions. I would say that it depends on the audience. Any reporting tool on the market for NBU today can give you this information in different "slices". Many clients do track this info

use a reporting tool like Bocada. It will do that for you. And, if a backup fails 3 tmes and then succeeds, it’s considered successful. (I would want to know what happened on those 3 failed att

How does everyone track this? Do you count just total successfully backups vs. the number of attempts? And how do you handle a backup that failed 3 times but ran good on the forth? Greg >>> This e-ma

NOM is included in 6.0, but it is not a reporting product. It is a operations management product, hence the name:NetBackup Operations Manager. This could explain the complaints from some other post
