Do you have an escalation or a case open with EMC/Legato about
this? If
so, could you sent it to me? I have an EMC guy here now, and we're
troubleshooting this RTM, so that, or any feedback that you might have
would be appreciated. :)
Check the release notes for NetWorker 7.2.1 Unix. I would do that;
however, I am having a difficult time finding them on EMC's every
changing web site.
I personally did not open a case for this issue.
