>From what I can tell, the problem really isn't just with VMD, it's with
a shared library that VMD uses. Other things use that same library, so
I'm thinking both the clients and master/media servers need to be
upgraded.

I've opened a support call, but it seems like I keep getting different
answers from them. It sure would be nice for Veritas/Symantec to give a
definitive answer on something than is so important. Below is the
technote where I got my info. Check it out and see if you read it the
same way I do.

Hi

There is no vmd on a client so I think we are ok!

Cheers
