I know of a bug (and we have engineering binaries to cover it both on the HP-UX master and on the Win2k3 clients) specific to Win2k3 Active Directory servers (portions of the SYSVOL cannot be restored).

 

So far as I know, there's no bug report published on that as yet. That's been present since 6.5 and Symantec has told us they expect to include the fix in 6.5.4.

 

(This one's not Windows-specific, it requires engineering binaries on both master and client.)

Can you be more specific about "missing files during the restore process"?  Do you mean that you run a restore and some data is missing?  Is this file level data, or an agent?  If you have a specific test you did that failed, I'd like to duplicate in my 6.5.2 environment.

We're waiting on 6.5.2a for the windows side of the house as we are experiencing a ton of issues with instability, errors and missing files during the restore process.

Mark,

Is this with windows or UNIX as well ?  My 6.5.2 Solaris 10 install seems to be running fine with some critical policies listed.

Regards,

Dominik

Jay,

The critical policies issue was raised by another member of this mailing list a while ago but even after removing these from the policy, the catalog will still fail every now and then.  It appears to be an issue with nbdbm database verification but they have been unable to debug it yet.  I hadn't heard  of 6.5.2 until I talked with support yesterday, hence my question.

Thanks

July 10th is the release date.

Here's a note about the catalog backup issue:
