ther is a Legato Technical Bulletin that addresses the problem. i'm not
sure of the legalaties of a repost of that bulletin, those with NetWorker can
obtain it via several means. the bottom line is savsests of size greater than
4GB will have the problem. with compression i guess a growfs of 11GB to 15GB
kicked us over. ther is a way to recover detailed in the bulletin and a
method of breaking filesystem backups to fall under the 4GB limit. thanks to
those who responded and to Legato for the quick followup.
