Self-test failure during a NetBackup Appliance upgrade when /tmp appears in the appliance NetBackup exclude_list file
Description
To verify that the upgrade is successful, the upgrade process performs an automatic self-test of a backup and a restore to and from the /tmp directory. If the /tmp for the appliance you are upgrading is on the NetBackup exclude list, the self-test fails.
To resolve this issue, check /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list* files on appliance and remove any entry containing "/tmp"
For example:
maintenance-!> grep tmp /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list
/tmp
If "/tmp" appears in the file, contact Veritas Technical Support for assistance in removing that entry from the file.
