Andrew, Just to be clear, because there is a bit of confusion here (and other places) about the new security restrictions of the 8.1.2 release in regards to older clients.
When we upgrade a Spectrum Protect server to 8.1.2 and use a mix of older and newer clients versions, the operations center and dsmadmc via new and/or older versions and we run into issues with connecting with older clients we can "update node" and set the SESSIONSECURITY to TRANSITIONAL for those clients to allow older clients to still function on the newer server without client upgrades?
