This issue has been solved. See solution.

In the instructions for migrating BE to a new server, it says to run liveupdate after a reboot, before opening backup exec.  I've tried running luall.exe, but it only shows that it's going to get updates for liveupdate.

How do I run liveupdate for BE without opening BE?

LiveUpdate will auto run...

LiveUpdate will auto run if you check the box at the end of the installation screens.

Other than that you can open the console and use it to start LiveUpdate without worrying (although it can help to then close the console after LiveUpdate has started.)

There is another option - use BEUpdateOps.exe to OptIn with LiveUpdate and then run LUALL.exe

(Note: run beupdateops.exe /? for the options)
