Hi Eric,

There are no plans for a 5.1.8 client. If you require a fix at the 5.1
level, you should open a call with support so we can look into the
possibility of getting you a 5.1.7-based interim fix.

Regards,

Andy

Hi Andy!
Thank you very much for your reply!
We tried the circumvention which is listed in the APAR, but that doesn't
work. We then installed the 5.3.0 client and now the D: drive is seen
correctly. However, we can't use this client level: our server is
down-leveled for system state backup and we can't upgrade our server (AIX
4.3.3) yet.
The APAR mentions the levels affected are 5.2.2 and 5.2.3. I see the same
bug in the 5.1.7 client. Can we expect this fix for 5.1.8 too?
Thank you very much for your reply in advance!
Kindest regards,
