4 Operating Systems Most Operating System vendors provide patches and updates to their products. It is a best practice of NetBackup Quality Engineering to test with the latest patch level of the operating system when testing a platform. If a known problem exists on a specific service pack or patched OS level, this information will be identified in the tables below. Otherwise, it is likely that current patch versions of releases will work with NetBackup for the Operating Systems listed below unless otherwise noted. Symantec supports the standard un-altered kernel/operating System levels as indicated in the table. Should an issue arise on a revised kernel, Operating System, or virtual system environment, Symantec support may request the recreation of the problem with the standard operating environment distribution. "Minimum NetBackup 6.X Level" The information in this column is the minimum level of NetBackup 6 that must be installed on the client or server to support this version of the OS. "Backward Compatibility" NetBackup 5.x clients, media servers and master server are EOL. NetBackup 6.x clients and media servers are supported with NetBackup 6.x and NetBackup 7.x server. "NetBackup Vault" This option runs on the same operating systems and versions and in the same clustering environments as NetBackup except as noted in the NetBackup Release Notes. NetBackup restrictions and limitations related to systems, clusters, and peripherals also apply to Vault. Exception: Vault does not support standalone drives. "Data at Rest Key Management Service (KMS)" This feature is a Master server-based symmetric key managment service that manages symmetric cryptography keys for tape drives that conform to the T10 standard (i.e. LTO4). Beginning in NetBackup KMS is supported on all OS versions where the Master Server and Media Server are supported unless otherwise noted. "Support Definitions" Symantec Maintenance/Support only applies to Symantec Licensed Software, assuming you have a current Symantec Maintenance/Support subscription for such software and such Symantec Licensed Software is operating in configurations which Symantec designates as supported. Symantec Maintenance/Support does not cover (and we have no responsibility for) providing technical support, installation services or other services for any other software or hardware products. Also, Symantec is not obligated to provide Maintenance/Support when your Symantec Licensed Software is operating in configurations Symantec does not designate as supportable/supported. Please see the current Symantec Technical Support Policy and your Symantec license agreement for more information, terms and limitations. "Supported Configurations" For more information including technical notes regarding currently Symantec -supported configurations (such as operating system/levels, firmware levels, databases, devices, device drivers, applications, etc.), please refer to our website < Please note that while Symantec makes reasonable efforts to keep this information updated, we cannot assure that this information will be in all cases complete or the most current. "Third Party Products" Where your problem may be related to product(s) from a third party vendor with whom we have a cooperative or collaborative relationship on such product(s), then Symantec may work with that vendor towards resolving your reported problem. Where Symantec does not have such a support relationship in place with the third party vendor, or where the vendor ceases to support such product(s), then our ability to support Symantec Licensed Software operating with such vendor's product(s) may be limited, affected, or prevented (and such third party product(s) may cease to be part of Symantec -supported configuration(s)). Symantec support may be limited by the hardware or software vendor due to their support lifecycle. Should a vendor announce End of Support for a product, Symantec support may be limited. page 4, Operating Systems 2010 Symantec Corporation /
