that the server was reporting some strange information.  It would seem that
the "platform" field has information placed in it the first time, and then is
never changed.  For example:

1.  I had a customer who just did a migration from OS/2 to Windows 3.1 (I know
that's backwards, but that's another story).  He reinitialized the hard drive
prior to the move, it now has a new label.  We installed the ADSM Windows
client, and last night ran a full backup.  This morning I found that his
platform showed that he was OS/2.

2.  I have another customer who apparently did a backup on a Windows machine,
and then reused that nodename for a Netware server.  (subsequently deleted the
backup from Windows).  While the files backed up are all from Netware, they
show the platform as Windows.

3.  I have a third customer who has partitioned his hard drive with Boot
Manager; we have set him up with both a Windows and and OS/2 copy of the code
so that he may back up both OS/2 and Windows.  We did OS/2 first - that's what
shows on the platform on the Windows machine.  (The label on the drive even
says DOS - but I know there's no relation within ADSM).

Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon?
