Operating System drop down item list in Backup Exec forum is broken

ABS_IT
Level 3

When posting in the Backup Exec forum, you can select the operating system from a drop down list. The item list is obviously broken though. The last two items are:

  • Windows Server (2003
  • 2008) Not Applicable

This should probably be something like

  • Windows Server 2003
  • Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2
  • Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2
  • Not Applicable

Regards,
-Roger

Apparently this got fixed in some secret maintenance or upgrade.

We appreciate more people voicing their complaints.

We have been complaining about this "forever" and were told it would be fixed in VOX, instead it got worse.

This was a request on Connect and it was never addressed there. Windows Server 2016 is also out shortly...

Admins/Ryan, Is there any hope of fixing this simple & glaring error anytime soon?  It isn't funny anymore.

@Larry_Fine

I checked this with Ryan yesterday actually. I understand that this is something that we are looking at fixing but do not know the timeframe at this stage. Will post back here when I know more ..

@Larry_Fine This is something that we know needs to be fixed and will be with our next engagement with the Lithium team since it is a custom build - that engagement date will be decided next week.

That is a shame that it wasn't close to being correct at launch, especially since we had been complaining about it for years on the old forum and we were promised it would be fixed.

Is there an ETA for when this long term glaring issue will be addressed?
