The "Intel" designation is about to be deprecated so you'll be fine sticking
with the "Linux" type.
 
I've tried to find where I just read this on Veritas' site but can't find
the original note.  I do remember running a sweep on our Linux clients to
see if we had any with the "Intel" hardware type.
 
Besides, if you check the compatibility chart, you'll see that, except for
BSD, there's no more mention of a client type for Intel, Redhat.

When adding a Linux client, what is the difference between the INTEL RedHat
2.4 client HW/OS type and the LINUX RedHat 2.4 HW/OS type?
 
I just noticed that a Linux client was setup with the Linux hardware when it
really has Intel. Will it make a difference during a restore, because
backups are working fine.
 
Thanks,
