I doubt you can bounce a 6.0 master while a media is running anything.
In my experience that kills anything running immediately. (6.0MP4 all
the way around here.) As far as client being ahead of the master, you
*can* do it, but your asking for trouble. If there is a client and
server bug fix your trying to accomplish your potentially going to make
things worse by applying the fix to only one end. In the end its always
a tough call. Lose backup data trying to fix a problem versus live with
the problem for a while. There's just never a good time for server
outages.

I have a long running backup (expected to take 5 days) running
from a Windows 6.0 Windows client. The master server is Solaris 6.0MP3
and the backup is being staged to a Solaris media server (also version
6.0 MP3). I have a ticke open for on another Windows client which
support wants me to upgrade from 6.0GA to 6.0MP4. So here are my
questions.
- Once the backup started talking to the media server can I stop
and start the master server without killing the backup?
- If the answer is yes, then can I upgrade the master server to
6.0MP4 while the media server is still running 6.0MP3? Will that cause
problems.
- If the answer to the first question was no, then can I still
upgrade the Windows client to 6.0MP4 while I leave the server at 6.0MP3?
