I did not find RHEL4 client support mentioned anywhere in the release

v2.6
linux kernel support. I cannot report, yet, on the more general
performance. I wanted to get my full backups done over the weekend
before tackling the upgrade.
One of the new fixes in 7.2.1 that really appeals to me is a fix to
the problem where when the backup of one client fails, it just hangs
its savegroup. The release notes say this issue has been fixed. I
hope so. I know some people have scripted their way around this
problem, but I would rather the problem actually be fixed, and it
looks like Legato did fix it. We'll see though if the fix actually
works, because the one night of production time I have had with 7.2.1
so far is not enough of a barometer.
