Prerequisites and data collection for a traditional licensing report

Consider the following prerequisites before running the traditional licensing report:

  • For the Traditional License report, you must install the nbdeployutil on master servers lower than 7.5.

    This utility automatically gets installed when you install a NetBackup 7.5 master server. Hence you do not need to install this utility on 7.5 master servers.

    The nbdeployutilutility is issued as an Emergency Engineering Binary (EEB) and must be installed on all master servers lower than 7.5.

    http://www.veritas.com/docs/000081541

    More information about installing EEBs is available on the Veritas Technical Support website.

    Note:

    The nbdeployutil utility was earlier shipped with 7.1.x master servers. However the utility that is shipped with NetBackup 7.1.x does not support traditional license reporting.

    More information about the utility is available in NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume II.

  • You must enable traditional license deployment data collection for the master server. The NetBackup user name and password is a must for the user to access a remote NetBackup master server (a master server is remote if it is not installed on the OpsCenter Server).

  • Only Administrators or Security Administrators can access Manage > NetBackup Licensing subtab and hence run this report.

  • At any point of time, only a single user is allowed to generate the traditional licensing report.

    Once a traditional licensing report is generated successfully, the last report is overwritten.
