Technical Alert for NetWorker 7.x.x

EMC Software issues security alerts to communicate information to EMC Software 
customers
regarding security issues in EMC products.
Please read and utilize the information in this technical alert to avoid any 
situation that might arise from
the problem(s) described herein. If you have any questions regarding this 
technical alert, please
contact EMC Software Technical Support.
Please read this note if you are currently using NetWorker:
NetWorker 7.x.x on all supported operating systems
Problem Description
Potential for data loss on Advanced File Type devices
In rare occurrences with the use of advanced file type devices, if ­½¿²²»® is 
run against the
advanced file type device, existing savesets may be removed from the advanced 
file type device
before they are staged or cloned to another volume if an error (such as an I/O 
error) is returned
during the opening and accessing of a saveset on the advanced file type device 
while running
­½¿²²»®. If this occurs the removed savesets will be unrecoverable.
Problem Resolution
Although the possibility of this problem is small, EMC strongly recommends that 
you install the fixes
made available on all NetWorker Servers and Storage Nodes configured to use 
advanced file type
devices. A hotfix is available for NetWorker 7.2.2 Jumbo and 7.4. The fix for 
7.3.x is included in
the full package release, 7.3.3.
