For 6.5.4 we are just releasing a cdrom for Windows x64 due to NetBackup getting Windows 2008 logo certification.  We are also releasing a patch container for x64 Windows as well.

 

Other clients will be patch containers and LiveUpdate.

Correct all these 6.5.3.1 corrections are in 6.4.  In fact anyone getting the 6.5.4 beta next week will have them.  We have processes that assure this with audits.

Bill, I trust that this security fix will be rolled into the 6.5.4 release, correct?

NetBackup 6.5.3.1 Hotfix is not cumulative unless the LiveUpdate package is used.  If you use the patch containers instead of LU, you must have 6.5.3 installed as a base.

 

6.5.3.1 is a small patch release that will address two issues with the scheduler.  NetBackup 6.5.3.1 is the first “triple-dot” hot-fix release produced by NetBackup, and it delivers a vulnerability fix, a scheduler correction for windows that span midnight, and corrective fixes to the scheduler when spring and fall daylight savings time changes occur.

 

NetBackup 6.5.3.1 Hotfix is posted to the Support website.  A full list of package links available for download can be found in the following technote:  http://support.veritas.com/docs/319624

 

We have been updating the LBN with information on 6.5.3.1, see http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/315021.htm  and we will continue to revise the FAQ http://support.veritas.com/docs/319637

 

Thanks Bill Coleman

Does anybody know if this is cumulative?

Or if you have to do 6.5.3 AND 6.5.3.1 when installing new clients?
