Problem

Veritas has created a package of Emergency Engineering Binary (EEB) fixes for NetBackup 8.2 and NetBackup Appliance 3.2 master and media servers. The detailed content of this package is listed below.

This set of fixes is packaged and deployed like other EEBs. After this package is deployed, the individual EEBs will be reported as installed in the same manner they would have been if each had been installed separately.

Note: Version 6 of this EEB  is supported on the NetBackup Flex Appliance. To obtain the Flex Appliance version of this EEB, please contact NetBackup Technical Support to request the Flex EEB RPM for Etrack 3998268 Version 6. The file name is VRTSflex-nb_EEB_ET3998268-8.2-6.x86_64.rpm.

As before, the constituent EEBs can still be manually installed on a Flex instance. The flex rpms are available at the download center link in the Package Content table below.

Note: There are no NetBackup client fixes contained in this package. This package will not deploy on NetBackup clients.

Note: Individual EEBs in the bundle will only be installed to the applicable roles specific in the following table below (EEBs with role Media are applied to both Media and Master servers).

Cause

This is intended to be a simple deployment solution for multiple EEBs.

Solution

Within the NetBackup domain, install this package on the master server first. Then deploy it to the media servers in the domain.

When this package is deployed on a NetBackup or NetBackup Appliance server, it will attempt to install all the individual EEBs listed below for the appropriate server role. If there are EEBs in the environment that are obsoleted by the EEB Package, those EEBs will be uninstalled. If there are conflicting EEBs in the environment, the specific EEB with the conflict will not be installed. A summary report will be output at the end of the installation process.
