RE: Budtool v4.6.1 NDMP breaks with DOT 5.3.5P2 - toasters

      Our Veritas backups via NDMP also broke on reboot following upgrade to
DOT5.3.5P2 from 5.3.4R2 (note Veritas not sanctioning 5.3.5anything yet to
my knowledge). Got backups restarted, but not easy nor straight-forward.
NetApp looking at it. We're downgrading to 5.3.4R3P2 per NetApp.

Tim:
We're in the exact same situation.  The first problem is that our tape
library device name is now called "mc0" instead of "spt0".  This is
configured in the jbmgr_config file.
Let us know if you figure this one out.  We'll do the same if we figure
something out!  =)

Howdy All:
We were placed on the upgrade treadmill last week and
upgraded
   our F740 cluster from v5.3.2D1 ( NDMP worked )  -- v5.3.4R3
   -- v5.3.5P2 ( NDMP no worky )
Subsequently, our direct attached Budtool NDMP backups
stopped
   working and timed out with each request.
Anyone else seen this, solved this?
Legato and NetApp are scratching their heads when they're not
pointing their fingers at one another.
