My experience is not so great with feedback to the list and I have
already mentioned that in the past, EMC employees never reply as it
seems that EMC do not encourage open, two-way discussion on this list
(or elsewhere). Regardless, I will give it a try:
. Avamar integration is poor. As already mentioned on this thread,
EMC should have Avamar better integrated in Networker. I have given
up
hope of getting any useful dedup from EMC and waiting for ZFS dedup
to
solve this problem (AFTD on top of deduped ZFS).

From what I have been told by people at EMC, some of the features on
your
list are planned for upcoming NetWorker versions. EMC doesn't
respond to
feedback on this list here, but some EMC people definitely do read the
postings here and give them due consideration, especially on an
issue that's
reported by numerous people.
I'd also recommend that you make use of the
networker_usability AT emc DOT com email address. Mentioned only a couple of
days ago by an EMC employee wanting feedback on NetWorker
functionality (Skip Hanson), this is a great way of providing direct
feedback to product management.
Cheers,
Preston.
