I think what is being said, is that unless anyone else other than Veritas /
Symantec do the work, then its not supported :-)

Symantec do have a Consultancy Service, however I am pretty sure it can be
done by yourself, whether it will work successfully remains to be seen!

It's a bit like Microsoft ..... "holding onto the secrets that are not
published" - its there.... But not to our good selves !

Hence why, people spend money on the services :-)
