About NetBackup 8.3.0.1 operational notes
NetBackup operational notes describe and explain important aspects of various NetBackup operations that may not be documented elsewhere in the NetBackup documentation set or on the Veritas Support website. The operational notes can be found in the NetBackup Release Notes for each version of NetBackup. Typical operational notes include known issues, compatibility notes, and additional information about installation and upgrade.
Operational notes are often added or updated after a version of NetBackup has been released. As a result, the online versions of the NetBackup Release Notes or other NetBackup documents may have been updated post-release. You can access the most up-to-date version of the documentation set for a given release of NetBackup at the following location on the Veritas Support website:
