Does anyone know if it is possible to restore datasets that were backed
up with a 16 bit ADSM with 32 bit ADSM software?

We ust went through "5" full bare metal restores of a pc and everytime
after ADSM was finished restoring the datasets, the pc (windows 95
client) was unbootable. It has been suggested that the client FAT HAD to
be 16 bit also but that attempt ended in a "dynamic internal error"
(whatever that was). I'm in the process (2 days) of trying to reproduce
the problem on another client but it keeps having hard drive problems,
so even if I DO get it to work, I have my doubts that I could get it to
work 2 times in a row.

At any rate, one of the variables is the original client was upgraded
from 16 to 32 bit and like all "deserving" clients that was in September
even though we automatically start his scheduler every day.....he
apparently doesn't want to be bothered with typing in his password but
that's another issue.
