This issue has been solved. See solution.

Trying to generate a report that shows each distinct client and some relevant information about that client; in particular the installed Netbackup Client version so I can track and target out of date clients for upgrade.

 

Can anyone assist?

 

Thanks,

Malcolm

Hey Malcom,

You can create custom reports with a row for each client by clicking on the "Reports" tab and then "Custom" and going to tabular as the type.  Unfortunately client version is not something collected (Master and Media servers are).  This is due to the fact NBU doesn't centrally store client versions on the Master or Media server.  That will change in the future and when it does VBR will definitely pick it up.

 

Thanks!

Sr. Product Manager, NetBackup
