Netbackup v.5 and NT4 servers

[spi200]

Hi all

We have a couple of backup NETBACKUP servers (Version 5 & 6) - how do you backup a NT4 server with this software?. I believe it is not supported but there may be a trick or two that people have used.
There never seems to be a priority to get rid of these old NT4 servers.

Any help would be much appreciated.


Thanks

Dave

If you are using Netbackup 6.0 you need to load the 4.5 or 5.0 agent. Do not load 6.0 agent, the backup on NT will freeze.

Most people leave a 5.1 media server and then use the 5.0 ( preferred ) or 4.5 client software.
