Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup Live Update.

John-

What kinds of problems did you have when you first tried this?

Here are the notes I took when I last set up LU, setting it up on 6.5GA and then patching to 6.5.1.

1) Set up the a disk share to store the LiveUpdate bundles. When you configure the NetBackup LiveUpdate Agent you must specify this location. Note that the location is referred to as the NetBackup LiveUpdate Server in the 6.5 Installation Guide.

2) Populate the LiveUpdate Server with the NBU LU bundles. Here is where you obtain the bundles, downloaded from http://www.symantec.com/business/support/downloads.jsp?pid=15143. filter on 'FileTypes' and pick 'LiveUpdate'.

3) Install NetBackup LiveUpdate Agent from the UNIX Options CD. (NOTE: for windows, this is part of the NBU 6.5 installer)

4) Create the LiveUpdate policy on the Master Server.

5) Launch the LiveUpdate policy.

Is anyone using this to upgrade client agents. All things I've seen/read are negative about the product. We wasted many hours trying to get it to work on version 6.5 when it first came out. 6.5.3 is supposed to fix some issues, I don't want to go down the LU road again without the possibility of success! Anyone have it up and running successfully?

Thanks,

Johnny
