Managing the NetBackup Package repository
The NetBackup Package repository provides a central location to add and remove NetBackup packages. Packages let you upgrade NetBackup or deploy emergency engineering binaries in your NetBackup environment.
The interface arranges packages by NetBackup version number. For a specific version of NetBackup, there are multiple child packages, one for each supported platform.
Select to review the packages that are available to deploy to computers in your NetBackup environment. Actions available from this interface include:
Add new packages.
Delete existing packages.
Before you can add packages to the repository, you must download VxUpdate formatted packages from the myveritas.com licensing portal. Place downloaded package in an accessible location on the primary server. For details on how to download packages, see the Repository management section of NetBackup Upgrade Guide. Specifically, refer to the Downloading Veritas NetBackup approved media server and client packages procedure.
To add packages
- From Hosts > Deployment management, select Add package or Add, depending if there are already packages in the repository.
- In the dialog box, navigate to where your VxUpdate packages are located and select them. Be aware that NetBackup can only add the packages that reside on the primary server's file system.
The interface displays only VxUpdate packages. A directory may have files but if there are no VxUpdate packages, it shows as empty.
- Select Ok to add the packages.
Depending on the number and the size of packages you add, it may take a while for them to display in the repository.
To delete packages
- From Hosts > Deployment management, select the packages you want to delete.
- Select Delete.
Note:
You can also delete individual packages from the action menu.
If you delete a parent package, all child packages that are associated with that parent are removed.
If you delete a server package, the associated client package is also deleted. For example, if you delete the Windows 8.3 server package, the Windows 8.3 client package is also removed.
