Hi Larry,

I know there is a problem with Unicode (Windows) and non-Unicode (AIX).
I've restored a Windows client on AIX and after that nothing could be
done anymore with the AIX client, because it's type got changed to
Unicode.

So I think your conclusion might be right.

Met vriendelijke groet, with kind regards,
 
Richard van Denzel.

Subject: [ADSM-L] generating backupsets for Windows clients

I've read the following comment in the TSM admin manual:

"Software for writing CDs may not work consistently across platforms."

I conclude that it is not practical to generate a backupset on an AIX
server
and use that CD on a windows client.

Anyone ever done that?
