you can read tapes written in 3.4 using tar... assuming you're not using
client compression, encryption or multiplexing (there might be more exceptions
but that's all I can think of now... stu fragment might be another, but not
sure).

as far as I know, nothing has changed in 4.5 for this.

Hi,

We're using NB 3.4 and we're asked by one of our client to be able to reread
our backups using standard Backup tools (cpio or tar for unix, NTBackup for
windows). This is not possible on NB 3.4 so we have to restore on an alternate
server and then redo the backup using the standard tools. Someone told me that
you were able to reread (or restore) backups made with NBU 4.5 without
NetBackup. Is it true ? Is it still true if we're multiplexing ??????

I'm kind of skeptical but what is the truth?


Greetings,

Jerome
