To obtain the 9.1 release, please go to Veritas Download Center In order to install NetBackup Server 9.1, follow the installation instructions found in the NetBackup Installation Guide NetBackup 8.1.2 enables a cloud-based application Smart Meter that provides real-time and accurate capacity usage categorized by workload. This new capability allows customers to proactively manage capacity and stay in compliance, and gives Veritas and its partners visibility into customer usage, which enables true-up conversations on an ongoing basis. NetBackup 8.1.2+ requires a Smart Meter registration key on each master server. You must obtain these keys and have them available during the installation or upgrade of your master server. See "Enable Veritas Smart Meter" topic of Veritas Smart Meter Getting Started Guide for details. To download these keys and learn more about Smart Meter, visit Veritas Smart Meter. Be sure to review the Updates, Patches and Late Breaking News for NetBackup 9.x. For NetBackup clients, Veritas has developed deployment templates for Chef & SCCM, so that customers can deploy them at scale. The templates will help you to perform installation, upgrade and uninstall NetBackup clients. Compatibility between NetBackup versions for Server and Client Back to top For compatibility between major versions, the latest available release of NetBackup is compatible with media servers and clients that run a release of NetBackup that is up to one major version behind. However, this compatibility ceases to be supported in any configuration once the previous major version has reached its End of Support Life. For information on Veritas End of Life Policy, refer to https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000116439 NetBackup does not support any scenario where a media server or client runs a software release update version that is higher than that of their Master server.
