nsrpush doesn't work with a 7.3.2 build 399

Question

Hello,

it seems not possible to upgrade a networker version from a 7.3.2 build 399.

my_client :
nsradmin> type: NSRLA;
name: my_client;
NW instance info operations: ;
NW instance info file: ;
installed products: NetWorker nw_7_3_2_jumbo.Build.399;
version: EMC NetWorker nw_7_3_2_jumbo.Build.399 05/03/07;
auth methods: "0.0.0.0/0,oldauth";
arch: sparc;
kernel arch: sun4us;
OS: SunOS 5.9;
NetWorker version: nw_7_3_2_jumbo.Build.399;
client OS type: Solaris;
CPUs: 2;
MB used: 2932;

----------------------------

nsrpush -u -p "NetWorker" -v 7.4.2 my_client

Upgrade Operation Warning
No upgrade products available for the selected clients

No problem on other version 7.3.X for the moment.

Thanks for your help.

There's some situations where upgrade is not possible, like:

- The client is a cluster
- PowerSnap installed
- License Manager or Console installed
- Some versions of Nw modules installed

Does this client have anything from the above list?

I had the same problem when I tried nsrpush (gave up on it). The problem is when you probe the client with 7.3.2 Build 399 it comes back with a weird version no. Like this:

Client-Name Platform Product Version Packages

xxxxxx linux_x86 NetWorker 7 Man Pages,Client

I installed 7.3.3 on the client, probed again, the version reported correctly, and nsrpush upgraded the client. Since nearly all our clients were at 7.3.2 Build 399 it made nsrpush useless for this upgrade.
