Hello,
 I would like to test restore of an AIX 3.2.5 machine. My procedure
would be as follows (I think):
  1. make sure I have bootable media (tape)
  2. trash all disks on the system
  3. reboot from tape
  4. re-install ADSM client
  5. restore all file systems

Now, for the question(s) -
  Has anybody done this? and if so what gotcha's do I need to watch out for?
  For example, will the restore maintain the file ownerships if I'm
  restoring while logged in as root?
