[Networker] Overall opinion of 7.2.2?
2006-07-11 11:28:44
Hi,
Was wondering what the over all opinion of 7.2.2 is? I've heard a lot of
grumbling over 7.3 so wanted to ask before upgrading from 7.2.1 to
7.2.2. I don't recall hearing too much mischief about this release but
just curious. We do use cloning quite a bit (something I'd heard certain
older releases caused some problems with), and I've provided our setup
below.
My main desire to go to 7.2.2 is to encompass as many of the security
enhancements as possible, and in the easiest manner, so was thinking to
simply uninstall 7.2.1 and install 7.2.2 and leave it at that release at
least until the next stable release comes around but wanted to ask
first. I see the following under Legato's Product Alerts:
27-Apr-2006 EMC Technical Alert for NetWorker - LGTOpa84882 (mentions
fix is included in 7.2.2, and patches are available for other releases,
but says nothing about 7.2.1)
18-Jan-2006 NetWorker Technical Alert - LGTpa83990 (says hot fix was
issued for 7.2.1 but 7.2.2 will include it)
16-Aug-2005 NetWorker, Versions 7.1.3, 7.2 Technical Alert (says
patch is available for 7.1.3 and 7.2 so I assume it's included in 7.2.1)
04-Apr-2005 NetWorker, Versions 6.x and 7.x All Technical Alert (says
fixes are available immediately for NetWorker 7.2 and 7.1.3. Please
check the ftp site for future availability for NetWorker 6.1.4 and 7.1.2.)
Here's our setup. We have 7.2.1 (64-bit version) running on Solaris 9
with two Linux storage node servers managing 3 tape libraries (all SCSI
connections): ATL P1000 with SDLT1 (220) drives, Quantum M1800 with SDLT
600 drives and a Storagetek with LTO1 drives. we plan to upgrade the LTO
drives to LTO3 very soon. We're backing up about 50+ clients.
Thanks,
George
