Hi Richard!
Thanks for your answer.
But I don´t think that should be a problem.
We on Cristie creates are own Disaster Recovery software who helps TSM to
get a quick start of your Windows/Unix System.
And that software has support for restore on accross platform.
So should that not be a good change in TSM in the future?

A frequently asked question, which I address in ADSM QuickFacts under
topic "Restore across architectural platforms"...
For it to be possible, the respective clients would both have to support
the same file system type, meaning both that it was programmed to do so
and that it was formally documented that it really could do so, in the
client manual.  Simply look in the Unix Client manual, under "File system
and
ACL support" and compare with page 49 of the Windows Client (5.2) manual.
You will see no overlap.  Voila.

Consider using FTP for getting files across platforms; or use an optical
disc
file system, which tends to be platform-neutral.
