I've registered against the defect. I've also given the team handling the defect the business impact that this defect is having on us. We have a very limited window to do major overhauls to the Netware Cluster, and this defect is a stop-project problem for this year's upgrades.
If we can't get this defect cleared, we're going to have to stay with NetWare 6.0 on our cluster until August of next year. At that time we could go with NetWare 7.0, or Open Enterprise Server, or whatever it'll be called. At that point the new OS would be lucky to have a single service-pack, which makes it a bit too immature for us to trust with a must-be-up system.
So far all the indications are that all of the cluster-based services will transfer without a hitch. Except for this one. Once its cleared, we're all good.
