Id be interested to hear if anyone had a plan of action

Hi all,
I am interested in hearing about any of the upgrades
that you have done, mainly going from 5.x to 6.5 There seem to be
quite a few environments (in my area) that are looking to upgrade, and I am
putting together some documentation that asks questions to better prepare for
it. I am still learning the ropes of NBU but I have a lot of experience
with the server side of things especially Sun and AIX systems with SAN
storage.
I have the Symantec upgrade guide "Upgrading to Veritas
Netbackup 6.5" and it appears to be pretty detailed, but it just covers the
steps to get from point A to point B. Some of the things I am interested in
finding out:
- is there anyway to estimate how long step X might
take? I realize that there are so many variables that it is not
possible to say "popluating the EMM will take X hours" but if enough
people chime in on what their experience was like, maybe we can come up
with an average
- have there been any show stoppers that were
unanticipated? We could all learn from this, knowing what questions to ask
up front based on our past...er...challenges. NBU has so many options and
is such a broad product that I doubt any two environments are identical.
Just sort of brain storming here, looking forward to hearing
(seeing?) what you all have to share. If we get a good dialog going I will
attempt to compile it into something usable and post it back here.
