I can tell you it is a nightmare. There is a whole new build out last week, 4454. It fixes a few of the things like remote agent installs failing and so on.
But there are things in a Win2k3 backup arena that need to be changed and are not documented or poorly documented. It still has daily "communication failure with remote agent" on random resources, etc. This is by far one of the worst software releases from anyone I have ever seen and the support has been worthless. The main approach to the problems has been "hardly anyone is having a problem" and "that is the first we heard of that". Yet they released an entirely new build of it.

That's an upgrade I need to do in the not too distant future myself. Any chance you could document more clearly what issues you're seeing? -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
