This is a MAINTENANCE Release for NetBackup (as opposed to a Release Update) - it can ONLY be applied on top of NetBackup 7.6.1 or 7.6.1.1. (If you are currently running 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.1, 7.1.0.x, 7.5, 7.5.0.x OR 7.6.0.x, you will need to upgrade to 7.6.1 GA before you can apply 7.6.1.2.)
This is a CUMULATIVE release - it contains all previous 7.6.1.1 fixes and you will not need to apply 7.6.1.1 if you intend to apply 7.6.1.2.
