PRODUCT FIXES
=============

This patch contains fixes for issues described in following 3 techalerts:

- Tech Alert 300804 (http://entsupport.symantec.com/docs/300804)

   The ContentRouter can potentially have an inconsistent FingerPrint cache.
   If a 'delete segment' task gets processed during a specific period of the reload
   of the FingerPrint cache, then the FingerPrint cache can become inconsistent.
   If during this inconsistent cache state that deleted segment needs to be backed
   up again, the ContentRouter thinks it is already protected and doesn't store the
   segment again.
   (Internal reference: ET1213743, Titan: 281-274-736)

- Tech Alert 300805 (http://entsupport.symantec.com/docs/300805)

   If the PureDisk MetabaseEngine has a lot of Data Selections and/or a lot of changes
   to the Data Selections, it's possible for the pg_class table from Postgres to
   become incomplete, which can lead to dataloss.
   (Internal reference: ET1217891, Titan: 240-724-779)

- Tech Alert 300951 (http://entsupport.symantec.com/docs/300951)

   A potential for data loss has been discovered in Data Removal.
   The Data Removal Policy may erroneously delete a file version if that file
   wasn't changed for a while AND has recently been deleted from the client.
