Brad,

I used to backup SGI file systems attached to an AIX client before IRIX
(SGI) was a supported problem.  The only problem that you may have is
with restoring permissions.  You will need to give the attaching ADSM
client server root access when you export the mounts.  I would also
suggest that you mount the file systems from the ADSM server if possible
so as not to "double dip" on using your network resources.
