Re: [Networker] Running 7.2.1 ???

We upgraded from 6.1.3 to 7.2.1 two weeks ago. It all went smoothly except
for upgrading from 7.2 to 7.2.1 on the server. I tried installing 7.2.1
several times but the version kept staying at 7.2. I ended up calling tech
support and we spent a couple hours on the phone getting it straightened
out. In the end I had to uninstall 7.2, use regedt32 to clear a bunch of
registry entries (see Solution ID: legato7329), then reinstall the 7.2.1
update. Since then we've had no problems and I think the 7.2.1 backup runs
a little bit faster than the 6.1.3 version.
That said, we're a pretty simple Networker installation. 5 Windows 2K
servers, 1 Windows 2K workstation, 2 Windows NT4 servers, 1 Exchange 5.5
server and 1 Solaris 7 server. All storage is directly attached to the
servers.
Just yesterday we upgraded our Spectralogic 10K library from AIT-2 to AIT-4.
Boy did that make a difference. I don't have real good numbers yet but it
looks like it cut our backup time (for a Full) from about 28 hours to 12
hours and that was before we switched the network adapter from 100Mb to a
Gigabit interface today. I bet we'll be down to 8 hours for a full now.
Hope this helps, Dave

Subject: [Networker] Running 7.2.1 ???
Just wondering if anyone has upgraded to 7.2.1 and any feedback. I have a
customer that needs to go to this version for aix 5.3 support but is
reluctant to be on the leading edge.
tks jimeee
