We upgraded directly from 7.2.2 to 7.5.1 back in May and have had minimal 
problems, mainly from learning the new interface.  But we are a very simple 
NetWorker setup, 16 Windows clients, 1 Solaris 7 client plus MS Exchange 
module.  All of our disks are directly attached and we only have one Networker 
Server.  I would have stayed with 7.2.2 but an upgrade to Exchange kind of 
forced my hand.

We've had no stability problems with the server but I have had to reset the NMC 
daemon (service for you Windows mavens) a few times.

That's exactly why I just upgraded to 7.4.5 rather than 7.5.x. Once 7.5 has a 
few more releases, then we will move to it. So far 7.4.5 appears to be very 
stable.

Hi

The 7.5 branch is still quite new and with a lot of new features,  
hence lots of possible new errors. The 7.4sp5 release hasn't had any  
new features and is purely a bugfix release. So I would expect that to  
be a more stable release. So if you don't need the new features in the  
7.5 branch, why risk the new bugs?
