I have been working with legato on this problem since the upgrade....

04/02/04 11:06:55 nsrd: media notice: Volume "L00415" on device
"/dev/rmt/5cbn": Block size is 32768 bytes not 65536 bytes. Verify the
device configuration. Tape positioning by record is disabled.

I have solaris 9, and LTO 1 tapes.  

Other than that the upgrade went real well and real fast.

We are going to be upgrading our Networker (Sun-flavored, "Enterprise
Backup
Solution") installation from 6.0.1 to 7.0 next week.  Our server is
running
Solaris 8, and we've already got the auth code for the upgrade license.

The documentation provided by Sun makes it seem like the upgrade
is very straightforward.
1) back up your backup server and write down important info (like
bootstrap locations)
2) remove the old software package
3) install the new package
4) allow resource files to be converted

If others have done similar upgrades, are there other things you would
recommend doing?  Any problems you encountered?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Erin
