The nsrck does not appear to use any time but starts at 8pm and stays hung until I break out of it he next day.

Other interesting new thing with 7.4.5:

1) I get over 22,000 error messages in daemon.log of the sort:
nsrim Only one browsable Full exists for saveset xxxx. Its browse period is equal to retention period.

I noticed that 7.4.x goes back to old savesets, even for clients that
you don't have any more.   It doesn't hang, but when you have 400+
clients for it to go through, when only 240ish are actually active, it
takes a while.

I was brave and installed 7.4.5. The good news is I don't get hung
groups anymore. The bad news is "nsrck" hangs every night. It appears
to be checking clients that don't exist anymore. I believe it has
always done that if there were savesets in the media index for
non-existant clients, but it would just give a warning and continue.
I cleaned up all the old entries that I could from the media index,
but I don't want to remove entries for our DR tapes.

Anyone else having this problem?

I haven't opened a case with EMC yet. Their website just hangs right
now when I try to do anything.
