Upgrade and installation instructions
For upgrade and installation instructions, see the Quest NetVault Backup Plug‑in for SQL Server User’s Guide.
|
IMPORTANT: With the introduction of Plug‑in for SQL Server 5.0, the plug-in’s internal name changed from “MS SQL” to “SQL Server.” When upgrading from a version earlier than 5.0, do not remove the earlier version of the software until you have upgraded to 6.0. After you have upgraded to 6.0, you can complete the upgrade to 12.2. Installing 6.0 over the earlier version ensures that the backups created using the previous versions can be restored using the plug-in. Due to the additional plug-in name change that occurred with 6.1, you must remove the existing plug-in before you install the new version if you are using a version before 6.1. This process ensures that items with the previous plug-in name are removed before items with the new plug-in name are installed. |
