Well, I’d say got to 6.0 MP5 (not
MP4) since it addresses some issues in MP4, specifically things we’ve had
issues with.
I’m always very hesitant to move to
any new software version of any product, be it Netbackup or anything else.
But with Netbackup I’ve learned not to
touch it until at least MP2 is out – clearly Symantec, like most software
companies, considers time to market more important than addressing all bugs out
of the gate so I strongly suggest 6.0MP5 unless there is a feature only available
in 6.5 that you absolutely must have… caveat
emptor.
