Re: [Veritas-bu] Anyone heard of 6.5.2a ?

All I have received after installing 6.5.2 is a couple of library binaries and a command that appears to link them in.

libVdb.so
libVdbMT.so
streamsfile_update

Not sure if this is or will be part of 6.5.2a ??? Anyway, have not applied them as yet as since I haven't had a chance to bring our master server down.

Is 6.5.2 being promoted as a fix for windows environments ? We have a mix of windows and unix clients but our master server is running Solaris 10 x86. Does this mean it probably won't fix the issues on our master server ?

So, not for that particular bug.

I've found 6.5.2 to be quite stable (and to fix some problems I've had with network timeouts backing up Active Directory hosts in a VMware environment as regular clients) under with an HP-UX 11iv2 master.

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:
