 Robert,
The NIC Management Agent 5.50.1.0 will solve a problem
NIC teaming in Win2k. If this helps NetWorker or not,
I don't know.
What I do know, is that I have a customer running
Win2k SP2 on ProLiant DL760's, using SSD 5.50, with
NIC Management Agent 5.50.1.0 and Gbit NIC driver
3.63.363.0. They have no problem connecting to their
clients for backup and no problems getting resonable
performance over their Gbit LAN (8 Exchange clients
pushing ~70MB/s to server and two storage nodes during
office hours).
