I'm sure I know the answer, but I will ask anyway. I have a NW 7.6.2.1 
client (it's Win 2003) that I need to do a full system recovery (i.e., a 
DR level recovery) on. And my NW server is 8.0.1. This should not be an 
issue, correct?

I ask, because I suddenly realized that I recalled reading something about 
recoveries about earlier clients and NW 8.x servers. And I can not find 
that reference now.

I think I should have no problem, It was a FULL backup, made to this 
server. Perhaps what I read had to do with full recoveries from 8.x server 
to clients from tapes made earlier than 8.x? I wish I could remember (or 
find) the reference,

Anyway, as long as I have the tapes, and follow the correct Windows 2003 
client DR procedure (install OS; install OS patches; install same version 
of NW; do full restore of all data *except* the NW binaries; choose 
"Overwrite" option), it should all Just Work,. I did this a few times back 
when I was using a 7.6.x server. Should all be the same now.

Correct?
