Thanks for that - I'll let you know how we get on.
This volume holds around 150 directories at the top level, and this is the only
one marked <RES>
I've looked at the attributes of the directory and see that the user at some
stage (I assume the user as we certainly haven't done it) has set the
'Immediate Compress' attribute on this directory. That's the only difference I
can find. Interestingly, I'm unable to turn it off in Remote Manager! So,
I'll investigate this further and see what I can come up with. This may be a
total red-herring of course - and should work anyway - the option is there to
be used.
However, it does look as though there is something odd about this directory,
otherwise, why can't I turn the attribute off.
I don't suppose you've found anything 'different' about your 'Users' directory?
Will keep you posted.
Cheers... Allan.

Hello,
Here's the case# 536939.
My Netware server is on NW v6 sp5 and I cannot suggest to my Network buddies to
upgrade or apply anymore patch to try in resolving this problem, due to the
frequency of abends we got since we upgraded to v7.2. I just hope that nobody
request a file restore in the 'Users' folder during the weeks that it was
backed up on this newer version.
regards,
Librado

Hi
Re this <RES> problem.
We have this problem on one folder on a volume too.
We're running Netware6.5 sp3 at the moment and Networker client 7.2 (with the
latest jumbo patch applied).
Do you have an incident number / call log number or whatever with EMC on this
<RES> problem, as I'll be reporting this too and it should help if I can quote
the bug report.
Cheeers... Allan.

Good luck with your upgrade. We decided to back rev. to v4.22 because since we
upgraded to v7.2 our main data server and border servers became unstable,
almost abends every night when the backup starts or just browsing files for
restores.
Also one thing the Legato Tech. support cannot resolve is this big question:
one of our main folder 'Users' is successfully backed up as <DIR> in v4.22, but
when we upgraded to v7.2 and on the restore window it only shows up as <RES>
hence you cannot expand it and restores files. This is a seriously important
folder as this is where the users save their network profiles and email
archives.
According to Legato Tech. support, we have to get Novell involved on this, but
Novell itself I think is already de-supporting NetWare O/S unless you have a
plan to migrate to Novell OES.

Ryan,
Still having trouble with SP5? (I am mulling over plans to apply SP5 here)
In related news, did you see Novell has a new libc for the RPC errors:
