A. As far as the FAQ maintainer knows, they are:

Solaris

Brands Networker as ``Solstice Backup", keeping the version number identical to Legato's number. Support is available either thru Sun or Legato.

B>Compaq Tru64 Unix (also known as Digital Unix, also known as OSF/1)</B>

Compaq (and previously Digital) distributes Legato Networker along with the Operating System on the Associated Products CD (currently found on Volume 2). Under Digital it was called "Networker Save and Restore" (NSR). This version is called "Networker SingleSever," and is licensed so as to allow one to backup the single computer on which the software is installed to a directly attached tape drive -- NOT to a jukebox.(A Jukebox license must be acquired separately from Legato if desired.) Useful things to know:

1. This is the full and complete version of Legato Networker which runs on Tru64 Unix (server and client).
2. The version numbers used by Compaq for versions of Legato now match the Legato versions since Legato purchased the 64bit, Y2K version of then Networker code base from Compaq (circa April 1999). Prior to 5.5, Digital/Compaq had run about a release behind because of the effort necessity to port Legato from the 32 to the 64bit environment, and therefore used a different version numbering scheme to reflect the 64bit code base.
3. "Networker SingleServer" really means one computer -- itself. If you wish to back-up multiple Tru64 systems (or a Tru64 system other than the one on which the server software is installed), use one or more jukeboxes or Auto-loaders, backup systems running other vendors versions of Unix (IBM SCO, etc.) using Tru64 as the server, backup various Databases, etc., you need to obtain the appropriate licenses from Legato directly. All of Legato's normal licensing mechanacions apply.
4. Separate licenses are needed for each node in a Tru-Cluster environment.
5. It is recommended that you obtain Networker support directly from Legato as Compaq does not directly support it any longer, and there is no point in paying the surcharge.
6. The Legato Con-Dist (currently called "Legato Information Protection Product Family Media Kit," which consists of 6 cds) includes the Tru64 Unix client and server distribution as well as the Unique Tru64 documentation. The software is in SETLD format.
7. There are important installation update (ie corrections) instructions for Tru64 Unix in the release notes separate from the "Installation Guide for Digital Unix."

Data General (DG UX)

Submitted by Terry Lemons (27 April 2000):

[From a Data General colleague]

We bundle a restricted version of NetWorker into the DG/UX release. It is called LDBU (Data Backup Utility). It does not accept licenses, saveset choice is only "All", only one backup device is allowed, local backup only, and parallelism is limited to 2. So it is very restricted in its capabilities but it does work.

Oracle

A stripped down version of NetWorker is included with every version of Oracle beyond 8.x. It is for use with RMAN.

Informix

A stripped down version of NetWorker is included with every version of Informix after 7.3. It is for use with onbar.
