In regard to: Re: [Networker] 7.2 upgrades..., Browning, David said (at...:

I have to agree.  7.4.1 was extremely painful - took months to get
fixed.

Once 7.4.5.x came out, that's been pretty stable.

We had roughly the opposite experience.  We went from 7.2.2 to 7.4.2,
and 7.4.2 was very good in our environment.  EMC had us upgrade to 7.4.4
during the process of debugging an issue (which turns out is a known issue
with all 7.4/7.5/7.6) and 7.4.4 and later 7.4.5 were a lot worse for us
than 7.4.2 was.  We tried multiple 7.4.4.x updates, but to be fair we
never tried any of the 7.4.5.x updates.

We've now gone to 7.5.2, and with a few days experience with that, I can
say that it mostly seems better than 7.4.5.  We haven't had a single hung
backup since going to 7.5.2, we were getting them several nights a week
with 7.4.5.
