Hi Benjy,

FYI, the fix for 16084 is targeted for a future release (slated for end of October) and should be made available in a 5.3.2 patch in the meantime.

NetApp is working with Mark to determine what the "random_refusal_of_NDMP_connections" problem that he is seeing is.

Cheers, Grant

Wow, I check my mail and in two consecutive e-mails I lose two clicks of faith in NetApps. Are these critical NDMP problems limited to 5.3.X, or does 5.2.X have issues I should know about? Is thered a 5.3 release that gives me the NDMP functionality I need without giving me the NDMP bugs I don't?

Does NetApp have any kind of document, internal or external, of the form: "How to use NDMP with NetBackup 3.2 without making your filers reboot randomly, or refuse backups, or catch fire"?

Ok, so I've installed the latest and greatest development release that's supposed to fix our clustered_filer_reboots_randomly_during_NDMP_dumps

problem,

and now instead of randomly rebooting, our filer has gone the random_refusal of_NDMP_connections route. Which leads me to my point, has anyone else who installed this release to solve this problem seen similar results?

Curious,

Mark
