I suggest that you jump/upgrade to v7.1.3.
I did the same upgrade 2 months ago, from v6.1.4 and tried all the 7x versions 
up to the most current one v7.2, but due to some bugs, Legato Tech. support 
advised that I backrev to v7.1.3 and they just provided a 'jumbo patch' which 
applies to this version only.
Strange though, but I have better/faster backup throughput  on v7.1.3 than v7.2

The biggest jump I noticed moving from 6.0.2 to 7.1.2 on a unix server
was how Networker looks at the Windows computer name (not hostname.)
The 6.0.2 compared the FDQN Windows name (with the domain part
appended.)  The 7.1.2 version only seems to care about the short
hostname.  It just meant adjusting the aliases field on (many of) our
Windows hosts.

Everything else went pretty smoothly.
