The enhancements and all fixed issues have been described in the bundle patch release information document included in the downloaded bundle patch ZIP file.
For the latest information on platform and products support, refer to the Symantec i3 version 7.5.1 Support Matrix (  http://support.veritas.com/docs/283453 ).
The following issues are fixed in Indepth for SQL Server:
Requirements

Before applying this patch, you must apply the IN_INFP_751_007 (  http://support.veritas.com/docs/290432 ) patch. If you have not yet applied the IN_INFP_751_007 patch, abort the current installation, apply the IN_INFP_751_007 patch and then re-apply this patch. To check whether the IN_INFP_751_007 patch is installed on your system, go to AdminPoint>Patches and verify that the IN_INFP_751_007 patch is installed on your Symantec i3 FocalPoint server.
Installation recommendation

In cases where an installation of Symantec i3 does not yet include the installation of the Indepth for SQL Server product framework (FocalPoint), it is highly recommended to install this patch before the installation of the product. Doing so will ensure that Indepth for SQL Server framework and Collector agents work with the latest patch update.
Installation directive

When you apply the version 7.5.1 bundle patch BU_I3_750_001 on a server, any relevant version 7.5.1 MP bundle patch or patch (for example BU_OR_751_015) that was previously applied to that server should be re-applied to that server after you complete the version 7.5.1 bundle patch installation.
See Also: Installing new components after applying Symantec i3 v7.5.1 (  http://support.veritas.com/docs/284321 )

The following is an example scenario:

1. You have installed a Symantec i3 version 7.5.0 server with a .NET Collector agent.

2. You have applied the version 7.5.1 bundle patch BU_I3_750_001 to the server. The server version is now version 7.5.1.

3. You have installed the Indepth for Microsoft .NET version 7.5.1 MP bundle Patch BU_DN_751_003. The server version that is shown is still version 7.5.1.

4. Let us assume that the MP2 bundle patch has not been installed on Indepth for Oracle. You install the Indepth for Oracle FocalPoint on the server. Because the MP2 bundle patch for this product has not been applied, it does not fall under the staging process, the server version is now version 7.5.0.

5. You now need to re-apply version 7.5.1 bundle patch BU_I3_750_001. After applying the version 7.5.1 bundle patch, the server version is version 7.5.1.

6. At this stage you must reapply the Indepth for Microsoft .NET bundle patch BU_DN_751_003 to bring your server to the same state as it was before you applied the version 7.5.1 bundle patch BU_I3_750_001 in the previous step.

Note: It is also recommended to install the latest Indepth for Oracle bundle patch currently BU_OR_751_015.


Obsolete
This patch is a cumulative patch for Indepth for SQL Server and contains all enhancements and problem fixes that were previously released in bundle patch BU_SQ_751_003 (  http://support.veritas.com/docs/290465 ), therefore making that bundle patch obsolete.
