How much work need to be done to upgrade SmartMedia
Can you give me rough estimate of time needed?

We are in the middle of discussion with Legato as whether to move to SM 1.5
or DDS

Thanks

Upgrade to 1.5 if you can... It is the most stable release... Support-Wise
though.. expect very little from Legato where there is very little to
expect. In my shop, we literally had no choice but to study it and make it
work resulting in us becoming more knowledgeable than the vendor... Sad but
true..

It should be noted though that SmartMedia is a very good DDS/SAN-TAN (tape
aeraq network) enabler... based on SGI's OpenVault software...

1.4.1 had a lot of bugs and it was very much unstable and breakable... 1.5
is a huge improvent. Setup and configuration is easy and the media DB is
more robust...
