Attributes tab in Deployment management
Use the policy Attributes tab to configure deployment management settings when you add a new deployment policy or change an existing deployment policy.
Note:
If you enable Freeze Mode, the Install EEB and Uninstall EEB options are not displayed for the corresponding deployment policies, similar to other actions such as Edit and Deploy now. See About freeze mode in NetBackup.
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
|
Package |
Select the package. Note that you can create a deployment policy without any packages in the package-repository, if you have installed EEBs. With such a policy, only Uninstall EEB operation is supported. To get the install option, upload the EEB package to the package-repository and update the policy to point to the package. Note: You must add packages to the VxUpdate repository before you can create a working deployment policy. You can create deployment policies without packages in the repository, but those policies fail to run successfully. For more information regarding adding packages, see the Repository Management section within the NetBackup Upgrade Guide. |

Media server |
Specify the media server. This media server is used to connect and transfer files to the NetBackup hosts that are included in the policy. The media server must be version NetBackup 8.1.2 or later. Since the repository resides on the primary server, the primary server is the default value for the media server field. |
|
Limit simultaneous jobs |
Select the option and specify a value for jobs to limit the total number of concurrent jobs that can run at one time. The default value is 3. The minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 999. If you want to set unlimited simultaneous upgrade jobs, you must specify a value which is equivalent or higher than the count of the number of hosts that are selected for upgrade. For example, if you have selected 50 hosts, ensure that the value is set to 50 or more but lower than the maximum value which is 999. |
Java interface and JRE |
Specify if you want the Java interface and the JRE upgraded on the target systems. The three options include:
Note: For any VxUpdate package for NetBackup version 11.2 or later, the only the Exclude option is available. |
