Hi
We've just upgraded a batch of servers from Netware6.5sp3 to sp5.

They're all running the Networker client 7.2.1, and currently have the default 
sp5 TCP NLM's.

We're finding backups a bit flaky to say the least (though on odd nights they 
backup OK). This is currently acorss 2 sites (8 servers), but we have a few 
more sites who will be upgrading very soon.

The two sorts of errors we're seeing are...

1) Some volumes (not always the same volume) never start, so a server with say 
4 volumes will backup 3 - the 4th will never start.

2) Backup of a particular volume will loop round and round.  It shows as 
completed  but then restarts, and we have to kill the backup job to stop it.

I had seen mention of back revving to TCP659j, so tried that on a test server.  
It backed up twice OK, then abended!

Have also tried TSA5up19, but no joy there either.

Anyone else having problems?

Cheeers.. Allan.
