We have upgraded on wednesday our server and five Storagenodes (all on HPUX)
from 7.1.3 to 7.2.2jumbo and the additional patch for adv_files. In the time
before we had huge problems with not working adv_files going to status
"ready for writing, idle" and many periods of bad server performance.

Now after working some days with the new version we noticed a decrease in
performance of nearly all backups. For example, we have a large SAP instance
of 8 TB be saved via BCV, it takes before the upgrade about 16 hours, now it
is 23 hours(par. was 8). Also adv_files save processes do work much longer.

On the other hand NW seems to be much more stable and reliable now.

We have a Network Edition, the attached library is a STKL5500 (ACSLS). So
increasing  the savegrp parallelism is a bit limited. Since we plan a change
to TSM in autumn this year, we do not want to spend money in license updates. 

Has anybody experienced similar results after the upgrade?
