Well Sam,=20

            I will start by saying I was leery also however I am on site
with Two Veritas Employees this week upgrading my 5.1 system to 6.0.
6.0 is very cool...  I know there are users out there and they say wait
till the first MP1 but that is not needed.  I understand there will be
always updates and fixes but you also have to understand there will
ALWAYS be updates and fixes..  But in short the product seems very sound
however does use more resources or at least more resources such as extra
servers for the new functions are recommended. =20

I'm certain the community at large has an opinion, but if you were
migrating to a new pristine backup environment would you start fresh
with a variant of NBU 5.x or NBU 6.x?  The environment will end up being
2 or 3 AIX master servers with 3 dedicated media servers per environment
and roughly 25-30 Oracle media servers per environment.  Roughly 1000
clients spread across the master servers.

Thanks,
