Enhancements and Resolved Issues by Category Version 10.2.00P7

Issue Number	Description
20832	Fixed an issue with EMC Data Domain probes to ensure that blocking SSH connections eventually allow other SSH probes to progress.
25396	Errors were displayed in the Data Collector logs for the TSM Storage Pool Backup Probe if the Q PROC command returned a not found message. As this message is not unexpected, this has been changed to an INFO message.
26746	NetBackup try job lines were failing to parse due to an I/O error. They are now parsing correctly.
26791	For HP Data Protector, the hpdphistoricevents script does not have an administrator password requirement and the documentation was updated accordingly.
26856	HP Data Protector data persistence was updated to fix an issue that caused a database constraint violation if similar records existed in the backup specification client list.
26903	In the Inventory, for HP Data Protector backup servers, cell managers are now listed as expected. Prior to this release, additional nodes that were not cell managers appeared in the list.
26907	Updates to an HP Data Protector database column ensure that the number of slots can be persisted.
26909	TSM collection now supports an additional client option set type: Deduplication.
26958	The EMC Data Domain database table was updated to increase the size of the boost connection transport column, to accommodate larger values.
26977	For new Portal installations, Data Domain MTree data collection allows null values for the collection time when persisting data.
26980	Documentation for Centralized NetBackup data collection was updated to clarify steps to authorize access to master servers.
27022	The Veritas NetBackup database published view, apt_v_nbu_schedule, was updated with a last_updated column.

27028	Prior to this release, errors were displayed in the Data Collector logs for the TSM Storage Pool Backup Probe if the Q PROC command returned only three items in the output. Collection was not affected.
27038	Backup clients now are persisted with the correct type. Prior to this fix, in certain cases, in the Inventory, clients appeared as Data Domain systems.
27042, 27043	Several new database published views support more detailed custom templates for EMC Avamar data reporting: apt_avm_dataset_detail and apt_avm_dataset_command.
27045	The Data Domain Replication History and Data Domain Snapshot History dynamic templates can now be customized without encountering errors.
27059	EMC Data Domain collection was updated to handle a new output format introduced in Data Domain 5.7. The replication source directory can now be collected successfully.

27260	The following database published views now include a master_server_name column: apt_v_nbu_policy and apt_v_nbu_policy_client. This enables easier access to the master server name in SQL report template queries.
27272	In the Hosts Inventory list, TSM objects are now listed in the appropriate category. Prior to this fix, they were listed under the “Other” category.
27290	Updates to EMC NetWorker collection fix an issue that, in certain circumstances, caused an invalid saveset to be created when processing the group logs. This, in turn, caused incorrect backup jobs to be listed in reports.
27302	For EMC Data Domain file-level compression collection, database changes now correlate the NetBackup storage server to the Data Domain system, ensuring that data is collected from all relevant servers.
27303	For the IBM TSM version of the Job Summary, a Tapes column has been added to include a comma-separated list of tapes associated with a backup job.

27605	EMC Data Domain collection was updated to ensure that disk performance details are successfully collected and persisted in the database.
27658	When duplicate NBU Master Server names are present in the same domain Backup events would not persist correctly, we now ensure that the configured master server is used.

27733	Due to an issue with Search and EMC Avamar clients, additional flexibility in excluding patterns in Host search based on host name were added.
27762	Resolved an issue where some Networker Probes stopped collecting if a collection returned no data.
27792	For EMC Avamar, when an avmDomainName is missing, the error log now shows an Info message instead of an Error.
27797	A Data Domain File Level Compression Probe that is configured with an include or exclude list that contains spaces would fail to match mtrees after the first entry. This has been resolved to handle spaces.
27853	An EMC Avamar database date time column for replication activities did not have an accurate time value, therefore some replication activities were missed. We now use the column completed_ts instead to calculate the value.
28010	When a generic job collection is complete, an error message appears in the DataReceiver logs. Actual collection of data is not affected.
28021	Fixed an issue where collection for Commvault Simpana was failing for VM jobs because there was a version mismatch with the VM drivers.
