Few things to help out, since I'm in the same boat:
1) EMC's site will not contain EBS. EBS is a Sun/Oracle re-brand of Networker,
that is specific to them (and was EOL'd shortly after the Oracle purchase was
finalized).
2) Upgrade from 7.4 to 7.6 will generate an update enabler due to 7.5 in the
middle, see Oracle KB 1006032.1
-----=====
Note: If you are upgrading from a 7.5.x release to 7.6, an update enabler is
not generated and not required. If you are upgrading from any release previous
to 7.5 to release 7.6, the update enabler is auto-generated. However, the
enabler indicates "Update enabler for 7.5" and will need to be authorized for a
7.6 server within 45 days."
-----=====
3) Also check this Oracle KB:
How to migrate Enterprise Backup Software (EBS) to EMC NetWorker [ID 1160430.1]
4) Latest Oracle patch available for EBS 7.6 is 7.6.1 equiv, and that is for
Solaris only (sparc-64 and x64). So you'd have to convert to EMC Networker to
be current under Linux.
5) Last I heard Oracle does not support a Linux EBS Server, only Solaris.
Storage nodes and clients were fine.
Good Luck,

Subject: Downloading StorageTek EBS 7.6
Hello,
We are running a solaris server with StorageTek EBS 7.4.
Recently we got a Linux box as a our new backup server.
As the Release notes of 7.6 says, upgrading to 7.6 do not
require to buy update enabler. So I was trying to download the
StorageTek EBS 7.6. I have already wasted too much of my time
trying to find the web page on oracle web site where I can
download this software. We have an oracle account.
Looks like EMC Powerlink is down? I am getting he following
error message since yesterday:
****************************
Access Violation:
We're sorry, Powerlink is currently unavailable, the support group
has been alerted. Please try again later. Click here to return to the
Powerlink home page. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Any help/pointers to get the latest Networker version will be really
appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance,
