I just 'rolled' this out a month ago or so.  Im relatively new to
netbackup and unix for that matter but:

=20

No issues as of yet, but solaris 5 doesnt like my nbu5 server or vice
versa, go figure...  However even though solaris 6 is also officially
unsupported its working AOK here (and with vcs via our refurbished 4500s
I might add!) =20

=20

We moved from nbu 3 running on an ultra 5 to a v240 running nbu 5.1.
Yes you read that right, an ultra 5 -- and we had 2 unipacks hanging off
for the catalog as it 'got too big' for the internal drive.  I can also
confirm that the oracle agent works, and even on 2.6 via nbu5!  Im
backing up about 15 or so hosts with a total of about 6TB unix to an L20
DLT via scssi and so far solaris 10 and/or netbackup running on that
host is the least of my problems. Its very solid and so far has yet to
be any culprit in my backup strategy.  My legacy hosts / amount of data
to put on the L20 DLT on the other hand...  Lets just say its not very
practical to put these emc arrays on to 20 dlt 40/80 tapes, even after
skipping dbf files...=20

=20

I think out of the box solaris 10 is not supported, you need to put on
5.1 and patch it up to mp3 - there are docs out there on the official
sol10 specifics.  If anyone at veritas/Symantec is on this list, if you
need any testing done for nbu6 on legacy systems/tape drives you know
who to talk to!
