The information we received when we upgraded was that a server with v2 would
backup v3 clients but there would be problems because of the upgrade and as
Bob says a v2 client cannot access any v3 data.  Our ADSM server is AIX,
backing up an eclectic mix of AIX, NT, Novell, etc client servers, and after
looking at all the possibilities, it did not seem very practical as far as
day-to-day operations plus giving our clients the best service to upgrade
the clients without upgrading the server.
