 \# The change history below indicates the specific fixes applied to the
\# current version/fix/mod level of Sysback. The last digit if the product 
\# level is the FIX ID, and is incremented by 1 each time a new fix level is 
\# released. Each fix level may contain more than one change. A fix level is 
\# released when either a high severity fix is included or after a
\# number of low severity problems are accumulated.
\# 
\# To tell whether a fix has been appiled, run "lslpp -h sysback.rte".
\#    For trial intallations:
\#       04.01.0000.1005 = Ver 4 Rel 1 Mod 1 Fix 5
\#    For product installations:
\#       04.01.1000.0005 = Ver 4 Rel 1 Mod 1 Fix 5
\#
\# The SEVERITY or TYPE of problem is indicated prior to each specific
\# fix. The codes are as follows:
\#    1 = Very High Severity. Fixes a problem which could potentially 
\#        cause data or system to be unavailabe until fix is applied. 
\#        Affects less customers than pervasive problems.
\#    2 = High Severity. Customers experiencing the problem would require
\#        technical support assistance in a resolution, although the
\#        problem does not pose potential data loss or system outage.
\#    3 = Medium Severity. Fixes a problem in a function which is not
\#        working as expected but customer can continue working
\#        normally.
\#    4 = Low Severity. This is usually a trivial fix which is not
\#        noticed by most customers and is easily worked around.
\#    C = Cosmetic fix only. Has no affect on program.
\#    D = Documentation change.
\#    E = Enhancement. Provides new or enhances existing function.
\#    P = Pervasive! Fixes a bug that will strongly affect many customers
\#        (i.e. fixes failure with installation process or a backup 
\#        problem that is not apparent until restore is attempted).

 0  xx/xx/xx     Initial Release of modification level 4.1.3
                 Includes the following changes and enhancements not
                 available in prior mod levels:
              E  On defective media, when possible, sysback will skip
                 unreadable data on the media and resync from data
                 displacement errors.
              E  New option on Utlities Menu to change sysback default
                 settings. Currently contains only options relevant to
                 reading defective media or out of sync data.
              E  Allow filenames with spaces to be included on backups.
                 Files will be restored with directories, but may not be
                 restored selectively.
              E  When changing volume group infomration, allow user to
                 select to create a VG even if no PVs are available.
                 This allows user to move LVs from old VG to new VG.
              2  REMOTE incremental backups did not update backup history.
                 When performing next level, message indicated that
                 no previous level incremental backup was performed.
              2  Bug in 4.1.2 prevented network boots from token-ring
                 networks.
              3  Could not create remote boot tape (without data).
              3  Errors configuring network adapters to perform network
                 install after booting from tape.
              3  During install process, could not boot from one ethernet
                 adapter and install from another.
