Anu,

I work for Clemson University and we have been using Networker for more than a 
decade.  About two years ago we began using Networker to write directly to a 
Solaris Sam/Qfs file system which automatically writes to an on site and off 
site  tape library.  This takes  care of cloning and off site copies.   Many of 
our full backups create save sets that are greater than 1TB and the Sam file 
system doesn't begin to move data to tape until the save set finishes writing.  
 It would be helpful if we could limit the save set size at the device level to 
more efficiently use the Sam file system and its archiving ability.   There is 
an EMC request ( EMC Service Request 34330996) open.  Please consider including 
this in the release if the request cannot be processed sooner.

Anu,

The features you just mentioned sound very interesting. You just reminded me of 
something.

Up until NetWorker server 7.5.2, there used to be a notice posted in the 
console window (nsrwatch) whenever a client was updated or installed the 
NetWorker software. A matching email was also sent. That feature seems to have 
gone away with 7.5.3. Can I have it back please?
