Initial impressions:
* CLI is cool. Client-initiated saves and recovers work well (recover shell is
the same as *nix platforms)
* I am having trouble with server-initiated saves. I will investigate further.
* You cannot perform multiple saveset recovers to a destination client as per
4.x client (eg. in a DR scenario). I have opened LGTpa80130 regarding this.
I am pretty sure there is no 7.2 storage node for NetWare (although I would
love to see this).
Cheers,
Ryan.

Hi,
Looks like NetWorker for NetWare 7.2 was released today. Release notes and
documentation are on the doc site.
New features appear to include:
--nsrexecd.nlm
--NetWare Cluster support
--Each backup is a new process, not just a new thread
--cli
I haven't installed it yet, so I don't know how it works related to Storage
Nodes, including whether if can be a storage node, and/or if backing up to a
storage node it goes directly there. (I assume the later, which is a major
plus, since the older version essentially "bounced" off the backup server to
get to a storage node, and I'd prefer to not have tape drives on NetWare if I
can help it)
And of course...performance.
Any results are appreciated.
Dave
