Bits are bits. NetWorker does not examine the contents of the file in
any way, so you should have no issues with that. However, the
filesystem information (stat structures, ACLs, etc.) may be different
on the Solaris machine; not usually an issue on a unix machine, but it
is possible. Consider using uasm to back up the file from the Solaris
machien to the Linux machine:
uasm -s file > backup.path
uasm will use all the same code as save, but send the output to stdout
instead of sending it over the network to the backup server. Use uasm
-r to recover.
