Re: [Veritas-bu] Server OS and NBU upgrades

Hi James
Yes done this, in different ways
Key thing is, that you have a DR plan in place should
something go wrong.
In my view, upgrade to NBU 7.0
Before going to Win2k8, get a GOOD Backup of the System (as it
is) and a Catalog Backup of your "current working" environment
:-)
Upgrade to Win2k8 - You should find that NBU would not have
changed.
Can confirm the policies have not changed or amended in my
environment.
I would suggest going to 7.0.1 or if possible, 7.1 now. That
is the only suggestion.
Should things go completely wrong, at least you can "roll
back".

Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) with upgrading
from Windows Server 2003 to 2008 and NBU 6.5 to 7.0? Currently my backup
server is running the older versions of both. I have the software to
upgrade both of them. Is there a preferred sequence: upgrade NBU then the
OS or upgrade the OS first and then NBU? When upgrading NBU, will it
preserve the settings and policies already created?
