About NetBackup compatibility lists and information
The NetBackup Release Notes document contains a great deal of the compatibility changes that are made between NetBackup versions. However, the most up-to-date compatibility information on platforms, peripherals, drives, and libraries can be found on the Cohesity Operations Readiness Tools (SORT) for NetBackup website.
See About Cohesity Services and Operations Readiness Tools.
For NetBackup, SORT provides an Installation and Upgrade Checklist report as well as the ability to collect, analyze, and report on host configurations across your environments. In addition, you can determine which release contains the hot fixes or EEBs that you may have installed in your environment. You can use this data to assess whether your systems are ready to install or upgrade to a given release.
In addition to SORT, Cohesity has made available a variety of compatibility lists to help customers quickly reference up-to-date compatibility information for NetBackup:
