Several bug fixes for Disk Grooming

Due to the changes made for disk grooming, RDU 7.0.12.105 requires an application version of 7.0.301 or later. The latest version of 7.0 can be found at: http://www.emcinsignia.com/supportupdates/updates/retrospect/archive/#UPDATETYPE41

Also, customers who are using grooming must recatalog Backup Sets which were created prior to using this new RDU.

This tutorial shows how to rebuild the catalog file: http://kb.dantz.com/article.asp?article=8350&p=2

Grooming-related issues fixed in this RDU include: * Assert at elem.cpp-993 * Assert at arc.cpp-2987 * Assert at grx.cpp-1032 * Various situations where error -2241 (catalog file invalid/damaged) can occur * Situation where cancelling groom causes Retrospect to think it did not groom some data that was groomed * Situation where snapshots that should be forgotten are not, causing capacity issues * Retrospect now does allow cancelling groom during the last phase of catalog update. * Grooming successfully reported even though Retrospect cannot verify that files are deleted successfully * Grooming successfully reported even when catalog file is not properly updated * Scripted groom does not run if a previous groom was stopped during matching. * Out of memory errors during recatalog operations * Fixed an Error -105 (unexpected end of data) during Recycle Backup to disk Backup Sets that span media * Fixed a module.cpp-460 assert when configuring DVD+R media * Fixed a dist.cpp-264 assert error
