Error description

  • During startup of the Spectrum Protect Client the operating
    system of the system the node resides on will be reported to the
    Spectrum Protect Server.  If the operating system is Windows 10,
    the role will be incorrectly reported as SERVER when the correct
    value is CLIENT.
    
    Evidence of this can be found by performing the query "select
    node_name,role,client_os_name from nodes where
    client_os_name='WIN:Windows 10'".  If one has been affected than
    the CLIENT_OS_NAME will be WIN:Windows 10 and ROLE will be
    SERVER.
    
    This may cause issues with PVU Licensing.
