Hey guys An update on the 7.1.0.4 upgrade. We upgraded our environment to 7.1.0.4 over the past two weeks and noticed several fixes for 196 errors and VCB issues, as well as quick erase speeds increasing and less issues with policy corruption. So I would suggest going to this version if you are on 7.1.0.1 or 7.1.0.3.

One day they found that someone inside your company was spying for benefit of a competitor. Your supervisor came to you and say: "Please find all files of the user x and keep them infinity or at least up to the end of the court as we will sue him." I can only imagine what work the admin has to do in order to fitful this request. And he has to keep track all changes in order to revert them. With search and hold, symantc says, that this task is a please of cake. And when you "un-hold", the images return to the original retention. If you are in "per terabyte" license model, then it is free. PS. I have not play with this option. I will when I will have time. stefanos From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Anurag Sharma Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2012 11:43 PM To: veritas-bu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup 7.5 Operational Restore or Search & Hold ??????
