6.0 MP5 has two significant bugs that I know of:
1. Compressed catalogs cannot be read when browsing backups to be restored: You have to open a support case and get a new bpdbm binary. 2. NDMP backups fail if you have tuned Netbackup with NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS. You have to open a support case get a new bptm binary.

I'm always very hesitant to move to any new software version of any product, be it Netbackup or anything else. But with Netbackup I've learned not to touch it until at least MP2 is out - clearly Symantec, like most software companies, considers time to market more important than addressing all bugs out of the gate so I strongly suggest 6.0MP5 unless there is a feature only available in 6.5 that you absolutely must have... caveat emptor. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 26, 2007 09:10 To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Upgrade to 6.5 or 6.0MP4 Hi there, I am looking for opinions whether or not to go to 6.5 or 6.0MP4 Currently on 5.1MP6/Solaris - Master/ Solaris, Linux, Windows, Exchange, VM - Clients/ Flashbackup, BareMetal, Oracle raw partitions, - future options Alex Gerber CISSP, CISA Senior UNIX Systems Administrator Sepracor Inc. p. 508.357.7445 f. 508.357.7777 ________________________________ THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS COMMUNICATION AND ANY ATTACHMENTS HERETO IS CONFIDENTIAL, MAY BE ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGED, AND IS INTENDED ONLY FOR THE PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL USE OF THE ADDRESSEE(S).
