backup SLES 12
October 27, 2014 saw the general availability of SUSE Enterprise Server 12 (SLES 12).
Today I tried to install a SLES 12 VM, but was disappointed to learn that there appears to be no EMC Networker client available for it.
When installing, you will run into something like
error: Failed dependencies:
libstdc++.so.5()(64bit) is needed by lgtoclnt-8.2.0.5-1.x86_64
libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)(64bit) is needed by lgtoclnt-8.2.0.5-1.x86_64
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2)(64bit) is needed by lgtoclnt-8.2.0.5-1.x86_64
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2)(64bit) is needed by lgtoclnt-8.2.0.5-1.x86_64
Has anybody managed to backup a SLES 12 VM using the networker client?
Thanks, TM

With the help of Novell Support we found the following clean solution,
which utilizes the service channel "Legacy_Module_12_86_64", to
provide the - as novell support call it - ancient Version of libstdc++
that the Networker client needs:
1.) Installation of Legacy Module 12
host:/ # yast2 repositories
Available Extensions and Modules
...
...
after that:
host:/ # zypper lr
# | Alias | Name | Enabled | Refresh
---+-----------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+---------+--------
1 | Legacy_Module_12_x86_64:SLE-Module-Legacy12-Debuginfo-Pool | SLE-Module-Legacy12-Debuginfo-Pool | Yes | No
2 | Legacy_Module_12_x86_64:SLE-Module-Legacy12-Debuginfo-Updates | SLE-Module-Legacy12-Debuginfo-Updates | Yes | Yes
3 | Legacy_Module_12_x86_64:SLE-Module-Legacy12-Pool | SLE-Module-Legacy12-Pool | Yes | No
4 | Legacy_Module_12_x86_64:SLE-Module-Legacy12-Updates | SLE-Module-Legacy12-Updates | Yes | Yes
...
host:/ #
2.) Installation of libstdc++
zypper in libstdc++33 libstdc++33-32bit
now we have:
host:/dir/# # rpm -ql libstdc++33
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.5
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.5.0.7
host:/dir/ # rpm -ql libstdc++33-32bit
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7
host:/dir/ #
3.) finally, the installation of Legato Client, e.g. Version 8.2
host:/dir/ # rpm -U lgtoclnt-8.2.0.5-1.x86_64.rpm
host:/dir/ #
The networker service is now running cleanly, as does the backup of
the SLES 12 host

Have you tried resolving the dependencies and re-trying ?

Yes, we did, to no avail. We even tried a forced install, but the utilities like "save" and "recover" won't run.

I am pretty sure that the latest client will work ... even it has not been approved yet.
What you are missing are some older libraries which are not part of the EMC software. Search the internet for download locations. As soon as they do exist, I expect NW to install just fine.
