It's been reported here that the restore time in the v8.1 CLIENT is much 
improved over v7 so I would recommend that one for the client.  I am not sure 
the server version makes a difference for this situation.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Spectrum Protect for VE - how to get started

Hello,

Up till now we have used BA clients in VM's.  We would like to look into 
implementing VE.  I would appreciate any wisdom on bringing it up first time.  
A specific question would be which version.  Our current TSM servers are 
v7.1.5, but I'm wondering if bringing up a v8.1 server and VE would be best.


Rick
