There is major bug in 7.5.0.5 as per Symantec, so better wait for 7.5.0.6

 

nbsl experiences a memory leak which results in a core dump.

http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH201979

 

Product

The following versions of NetBackup are affected by this issue:

NetBackup 7.5.0.5

 

Summary

The nbsl daemon crashes intermittently and creates a core dump. It was observed that memory consumed by nbsl was constantly growing, and when it reached somewhere around 4GB, nbsl would crash.

 

This issue is scheduled to be addressed in the following release:

·         NetBackup 7.5 Maintenance Release 6 (7.5.0.6)

Hi,

 

Unsure for Windows, for Linux/64-bit and 7.5.0.5:

 

Yes there is a problem with ghost jobs: (you will see 100s-1000s of jobs Active but they really complete)

 

This EEB fixes that issue:

Hello,

 

I am starting to plan for a 7.5 upgrade from 6.5.6 in an environment that I am consulting at for the next few months.  Has anyone run into any major bugs or issues with 7.5.0.5 after the upgrade?  I am running Windows x64 as my master with multiple NDMP filers and no media servers.

 

Thanks,

 

Dwayne Adams
