You probably want to take a close look at the upcoming NetWorker 7.6SP2 release 
which adds Windows Disaster Recovery (BMR) support for Windows Server 2008 R2, 
Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 in the NetWorker client.

Subject: [Networker] Upgrade to 7.6 series or 7.5, for Win2008 R2 support

I'm currently running 7.5.2. I have a number of Win2008 R2 clients. I want to 
get up to date, in terms of support for Win 2008 R2. It appears that both the 
7.5 series and the 7.6 series support Win2008 R2.

Ordinarily, I'd go for the 7.6 series, since it's a later version number. 

I guess my question - should I stay on 7.5.x? What will that give me that I 
wouldn't get, by going to 7.6.x? I haven't found a side-by-side comparison, or 
recommendation, that explains why one over the other. (I'm sure it exists, I 
just haven't found it yet ...). I stayed on 7.5.x because that series seemed to 
get support for Win2008 R2 first, before the
7.6 series. But I gather that's changed now?

Thanks
