Resolved Issues
..................................................................... (AGT‐9378) Files were not encrypted after running RoboCopy files from a clear to a guarded folder on the same EMC NAS. This issue has been resolved. (AGT‐9104) Upgrading the Agent from 5.2.1.33 to any higher version on File Server Cluster (DFSR) resulted in deadlock errors in cluster logs and subsequent bluescreens. Windows Patch Release 5.2.2.44 resolved this issue and now upgrades proceed normally. (AGT‐9135) Copying files or doing a "save as" within a GuardPoint resulted in occasional file corruption for certain file types. Windows Patch Release 5.2.2.44 resolved this issue so that copied files and “save as” files within a GuardPoint maintain their integrity.
Known Issues
..................................................................... (AGT‐9539) C/R failure with error of "Hardware signature changed" when system comes back from hibernation.

Vo r m e t r i c D a t a S e c u r i t y P l a t fo r m Known Issues
This note applies to those systems where the user chose to associate the installation with the hardware of the machine during registration. On Windows systems using three or more network interfaces, an issue can occur due to a bug fix in the release. If this problems occurs, the system will not be able to access protected data nor communicate with the DSM after the upgrade without re‐registering the agent with the DSM, and this requires manual intervention at the DSM to remove the existing registration first. To avoid this problem, the existing version should be uninstalled before installing the 5.2.3 release. (AGT‐5755) On all Windows agents, following a data transform users experienced stale data. To avoid this issue, do the following: Prerequisites: • Verify that there is a good backup of the data to be encrypted. This step is vital. • Stop ALL access and services to the data to be encrypted. Make sure no processes, services, or users are currently accessing the data. • Ensure you have enough empty storage space to copy the data. • You will need a VDS production policy. If you must create one, see the VDS Getting Started Guide. NOTE: All services MUST be set to manual when running data transformation. 1. Apply the data transform policy. 2. Do the data transform. 3. Reboot the Windows host. 4. Apply the production policy for data access by the application. 5. Restart services as required. NOTE: If you cannot remove a GuardPoint after running data transformation, reboot the Windows host. (AGT‐8366) Windows 2012 x64 R2 systems fail to boot after Symantec EndPoint Protection v12.1 is installed on guarded drive. A local administrator must disable the BASH driver via the command prompt as a workaround: To disable the Symantec bash driver: 1. Windows 32‐bit systems: sc config bhdrvx86 start= disabled 2. Windows 64‐bit systems: sc config bhdrvx64 start= disabled

3. Reboot the Windows host. (AGT‐8640) Duplicate GuardPoints appear in the host registry and unguard fails following an upgrade from 5.0.1. To avoid this issue, do either of the following work‐arounds: NOTE: Before disabling a GuardPoint, all applications or services that access the GuardPoint must be stopped. No application or service can access a GuardPoint during the work‐around. 1. Before attempting an upgrade from 5.0.1 to 5.2.1 or 5.2.2: a. Disable all the GPs on the DSM. This removes all the references to GuardPoints in the registry files. b. Do the upgrade. c. After the upgrade is complete, enable all the existing GPs from the DSM. This creates the correct GuardPoint list without any duplication. or do: 2. This work‐around will prevent the duplication of GuardPoints if done before upgrading from 5.0.1 or correct the duplication of GuardPoints if done following an upgrade from 5.0.1. a. Uninstall the existing agent. b. Reinstall the new agent.
