[Networker] Sun EBS Release Note questions

Finally got my hands on Sun's 7.4 media kit (for those curious, it includes jre 
1_5_0_11 which may be DST compliant - hard to tell since my copy on the DVD is 
corrupt, go figure).  After spending the night reading the release notes, I've 
got a couple concerns:

LGTpa89947 - cannot deposit a volume from CAP using 'nsrjb -d' - Instead you're 
supposed to use -T with both -d and -a to update the databases.  I need 
confirmation that this is with ALL jukeboxes or just silos (I have an unlimited 
slot license, so do not know if it counts).  Personally I'm thrilled if the -T 
version is the one I need to use, since that will nearly duplicate my AlphaStor 
behavior after that software removal (making life MUCH easier).

'A Sun EBS Server does not support a Sun EBS client running 7.0.x or earlier.' 
- This is a bit of a deal-breaker if that's the case, since we have a few 6.x 
clients because the OS is Sol-2.6 or 2.5.1 (don't ask).  I'm going to assume 
for now that 'does not support' means that we're SOL on support for any clients 
running that, and should continue to work for now.  However I need confirmation 
either way.

[Advanced File Devices] - There was a thread a few months back mentioning that 
old AFTDs were not working correctly after the migration (at least for new 
saves).  Any hints/pitfalls here would be extremely appreciated, since just 
about everything hinges on our AFTDs migrating correctly (~60 TB of VxFS 
volumes).

I am running under a Solaris/SPARC Server/SN environment (7.1.3), and will 
continue to do so with this upgrade (probably in the summer).  One of the main 
reasons for the early access to software is to re-document the new GUI from 
scratch for our Ops group (*insert grumbling about SOX, amongst other things*).

Huge Thanks,
--TSK
