NetBackup™ Upgrade Guide

VRTSpddei.rpm no longer delivered in NetBackup 10.5

Starting with NetBackup 10.5, the VRTSpddei.rpm is no longer present in NetBackup. VRTSpddei.rpm provided the Instant Access and malware scans of VMware images.

To continue to use the Instant Access or malware scans of VMware images, use the libguestfs.rpm and python3-libguestfs.rpm packages. The NetBackup upgrade script automatically removes VRTSpddei if it detects that these two new RPMs are present. Otherwise, the upgrade script notifies the user that there are manual steps to install the new RPMs and remove VRTSpddei.
