Hello Henrik,

Yes and with TSM (the best !)

> 1. Have anyone done such a restore to a diffrent hardware system?
Yes. It works since ADSM 3.1. Actually, it's independant.

I don't know.

No doubt.
We are a very small company (4 persons) and we operate only in France, so this
message is not a worldwide commercial advertisement. Marie-Christine GAMET, the
"boss", uses ADSM/TSM for 12 years and she took part in the writing of the
redbook : Windows NT Backup and Recovery with ADSM, SG24-2231-00 published
June-2-1998
Yes, we have a very accurate procedure for WIN2K and I have translated it in
english (sorry for the not very good translation and some french TSM
screenshots, I belong to these incorrigibles frenchies) and I have posted it
several times in private (in US, in India, in Austria, ..., among recipients
was a person from a BMR company, 11-21-2003).
This procedure was used and tested with customers.
