ID Description
46224 Scheduled backups missed during daylight savings time transitions
During days when Daylight Saving Time transitions occur, if you have backups
scheduled to run during the following times, the backups do not occur:
• For the Spring Daylight Saving Time transition, daily backups scheduled during the
hour from 2:00 a.m. through 2:59 a.m. do not occur.
• For the Autumn Daylight Saving Time transition, daily backup scheduled during the
hour from 1:00 a.m. through 1:59 a.m. do not occur.
The interim solution to this problem is to avoid scheduling backups during these time
ranges, or to perform an ad-hoc backup if the scheduled backup does not occur.
48932 Message box may fail to close when Installation Manager restarts
When the Installation Manager restarts as part of a package installation or upgrade, an
“Installation Manager is still shutting down...” message box may fail to close even after
the Installation Manager restarts.
To clear the message box, close and reopen the browser. This will clear the message
box.
52105 Large cache file size
When you back up a very large number of files, the size of the cache files may be very
large. This may have a negative impact on available disk space.
56207 User with administrator authority to a subroot Avamar domain cannot performGLR
recovery
An Avamar user with administrator authority to a subroot Avamar domain cannot
perform a GLR recovery. Redirected restore is disabled, and the option to change the
plugin type is disabled. The interim solution to this problem is to perform the recovery
with Avamar root domain (/) administrator access.
