|| Thanks for the quick response.
||
|| This is VERY reassuring.  We always suspected this, however we were not
|| sure and if it is in the documentation, I could not find it.

Take a look at the ADSM client manuals under the "-LATEST" and
"-INACTIVE" options (page 127 of the Release 1 UNIX guide).

||
|| I also believe that there is another requirement that is near the top
|| of the list:
||
|| -->RESTORE IF NEWER
||
|| Our need would be the case where we restore from some older dump tapes
|| but need ADSM to "clean up" a filesystem and bring it up to date.  Our
|| dump tapes might be older than our ADSM repository, however a full
|| restore from the dump tapes (in event of an HDA failure, for instance)
|| is certainly much quicker.
||
|| Could you check on whether or not this is a requirement?

I will pass this note on to the core ADSM development team.
