I have NetBackup binaries / application installed on the C: Drive, but using
the ALTPATH method to relocate the DB/Images to another volumes.
This way, if we lose the OS, I have an image backup of the C: Drive, with the
application installed, and if I should lose the DB Volume, I can simply perform
a hot catalog backup recovery.
Datalink is right... I usually do a clean sweep of the Registry before
attempting any reinstalls again.

Yes, select custom install and you can manually change the location from
C:\Program Files\Veritas to D:\Program Files\Veritas. Also be aware that I
recently installed to the C: (accidentally), removed the install via Add/Remove
Programs, Reinstalled to D:, and NetBackup's registry entries were all screwed
up. I'm not sure if it was a one time thing or if there is a problem with the
install package but the uninstall did not clean out all the registry entries
which left me with registry entries pointing to C: and D: which left NetBackup
unstable. I chose to rebuild the machine entirely (it was a new build anyway)
but Datalink support suggested clearing out the registry entries manually.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] windows new install nb7.1 to d: drive
i've been using netbackup on unix/linux for many years. i'm attempting my
first install of netbackup 7.1 for a new small environment which is a windows
master/media server. i'd like to install to the d: drive but the installation
gui does not give me a chance to change it. i do not want to install to c: and
then have to hack it to move it to the d: drive as i've seen some symantec
articles on moving the database if it gets too big. has anyone been able to
install directly to a different location? should i download 7.0 and try that,
and then upgrade to 7.1? that also seems to be an unneccessary hack if the 7.0
installation does let me change the installation path. hopefully it's
something i'm overlooking as i'm fairly new to using this here pointy-clicky
thing.
thanks in advance,
jerald
