I will post case numbers later. I am busy for the next 30 minutes ...

Oh yes. We also experienced 1, 2, 4, & 5 ...

Hey Guys,



Last Thursday I upgrade from 7.2.2 to 7.4.3. It has been less than
smooth so far.



It initial seemed to go flawlessly, but Monday morning nsrd crashed and
would not stay running.  EMC provided a hotfixed nsrd that seems to have
resolved that problem, but I have some other less critical problems that
I was wondering if you guys have seen.



1)      Adv_file devices keep randomly unmounting.  I've seen in the
archives people having issues with RO devices, but in my case it is any
device RW or RO.  There isn't any message any the log about the dismount
just that it notifies me if it needs it mounted.

2)      'Owner notification' either doesn't work, or the functionality
has changed.  My existing scripts don't work with it.  For
troubleshooting, I've made a very simple script that basically takes
stdin and writes it to a file.  That doesn't work either.

3)      Media that is labeled and previously working will not mount.
I'll get a message about "volume xxxxxx(volid xxxxxxxxxxx) NOT in media
index".  But then after awhile it will mount, after no intervention on
my part.  This is happening on tapes within a silo and on my adv_file
type devices that keep unmounting.  May be related to the first problem.

4)      Many, not all, savegroups are not finishing and the jobs that
are just hanging out are typically index saves.

5)      Nsrjb shows empty slots... which in not normal for an acsls
silo.  It allows me to allocate the "volumes" in those slots, but the
volumes are not actually in the silo.  In previous releases, a volume
could not be allocated to a silo unless in was physically in the silo.
I'm assuming this is a bug not a design change.



Any assistance would be appreciated.



FYI... I do have a case open with EMC to address them.



Thanks!
