http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/why-upgrade-netbackup-75
<p>Are you one of those IT folks that believe in the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” philosophy when it comes to your backup environment? Maybe it took a while to get the entire backup and restore procedure, tuning, policies and internal SLA’s all set and defined, and now you are content that “it’s running”. Or, maybe you fear the unknown, downtime and complexity of the upgrade process itself, and so you “leave well enough alone”, even if it means not taking advantage of some of those nice features that caught your attention in the new release. </p>
<p>Coming up next week, May 7th through 10th at Vision 2012 in Las Vegas, we can share with you what others have experienced with their upgrades, and some valuable information from the Symantec experts.</p>
<p>March 2012 saw the release of NetBackup 7.5 with new features such as NetBackup Accelerator, NetBackup Replication Director, and NetBackup Search. This session looks at the upgrade process of moving to NetBackup 7.5 and the associated catalog format conversion. In addition, hear an update from the Symantec Technical Support Organization on feedback they are receiving from customers, as well as a first-hand account from one Rapid Adopter Program customer about their upgrade experience.</p>
<p>Understanding the best practices, do’s and don’ts, functionality changes, etc., you can come away with a solid strategy on how to upgrade to 7.5 in your environment, and how to put those old worries and fears to bed.</p>
<p>Are you ready to learn more? If so, please take a few moments to visit our website or in person at Symantec VISION 2012 in May, and find out how upgrading to NetBackup 7.5 can benefit you!</p>
<p><strong>Planning on attending Symantec VISION this year? Come learn more in our NetBackup breakout session!</strong></p>

http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/hands-lab-dynamic-multi-pathing-vmware
<p>If you'd like to get some hands-on experience with our recently released Dynamic Multi-Pathing 6.0 for VMware, plan to attend the lab scheduled for Tuesday May 8 from 2:30 - 3:30pm in Room 124. During the lab, you'll perform the installation of DMP for VMware onto a running ESX server with SAN attached storage. You'll also be get the opportunity to explore DMP's integration with vCenter, allowing you deep visibility into the attached storage, array extended attributes, and visibility into I/O statistics and bottleneck troubleshooting. By the end of the lab, you'll have experienced the ease of installation, viewed our detailed I/O statistics, and manipulated I/O load balancing policies. </p>
<p>Space is available for 30 participants, so sign up early to ensure your spot. Additionally, the technical presentation on DMP for VMware takes place the day <strong>after</strong> the lab, so don't miss the opportunity to participate in the lab and experience first hand one of our solutions for the VMware ESX environment.</p>
<p>If the lab session fills up, we'll have contact information in the on-demand lab area where we can set up a time for you to go through the lab or answer any questions as well.</p>

http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/kinect-connect
<p>Are you attending Vision 2012 in Las Vegas? Be sure to stop by and visit us at the Connect Lounge in the Expo Hall. Besides discovering what's new on Connect, we'd love to challenge you to a Kinect game! We'll have two stations set up to extend the fun. Plus, at the end of the show we'll be giving away the 2 Xbox systems to two lucky winners. The Star Wars Special Edition Xbox will be awarded to the person who achieves the highest score on the <a href="http://www.gamesradar.com/kinect-star-wars-dancing-mode-why-were-totally-completely-cool-it/">Kinect Star Wars Dancing Mode.</a> (In the case of a tie, we'll draw a random winner.) If you don't light up the dance floor like a wookie in the Chalmun's Cantina in Mos Eisley, you can enter the drawing for the other game system by registering for a free account on Connect. (If you already have an account, we simply need you to verify your username with us.)</p>
<p> Both systems will be awarded Wednesday evening.</p>
<p> We're looking forward to seeing you. Be sure and stop by to say hi to the Connect team.</p>

http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/out-band-management-many-form-factors
<p>At Symantec Vision in Las Vegas, I will be showing a variety of computer platforms with Intel Active Management Technology in connection with the Out-of-Band Management capabilities of the Symantec Management Platform.</p>
<p>In the past you may have seen Intel AMT with corporate desktops or laptops. Did you know it is also present elsewhere? Digital Signage and other PC-like embedded devices, Workstations (even entry level servers), and in our newest platforms - Ultrabooks.</p>
<p>Did you know Intel AMT communications can occur over 802.11 wireless? Planning to show that too</p>
<p>In addition to showing the variety of Intel AMT devices, I will show how Out-of-Band will benefit your environment. Plus - how to easily configure Intel AMT. It's really not that hard.... (if you think otherwise - we definitely need to talk <img alt="wink" height="20" src="https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/sites/default/modules/contrib/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/wink_smile.gif" title="wink" width="20" />)</p>
<p>Be sure to stop by the Intel booth area in the partner showcase area. You won't miss it - we'll be right at the front, large 20x20 booth.</p>
<p>And while you are there - see the demonstrations of Intel IPT, server appliances, and more on how Intel and Symantec are collaborating together</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BTW: You just might win a cool prize or two. Won't reveal here what the prizes and giveaways will be... except to say they are some of the hottest selling Intel units you can easily carry and immediately use (and if you guessed Intel phone... sorry, that's currently available only outside the U.S. at the moment and is getting a lot of excellent attention.) <img alt="wink" height="20" src="https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/sites/default/modules/contrib/ckeditor/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/wink_smile.gif" title="wink" width="20" /></p>
