Hi,
The solaris is the master but I was talking about a windows client =
backed up from the solaris master that I would like to restore on =
another windows machine on a separate location where no machine is =
running netbackup. As you can migrate from a unix master to a windows =
master I understand that whatever OS the master is running on the =
backups are done the same way. What am i missing ?=20

  As far as I know, you can not restore a tape created on a Solaris =
machine on a Windows system, even if it were running NetBackup.  The =
tape format differs between UNIX and Windows.  I don't believe the tar32 =
program on Windows can read the tar format created by NBU on a UNIX =
server. =20

    Hello everyone,

    I'm using NetBackup Datacenter 3,4 GA with a solaris Master Server =
and a L700 library with 9840 Tape Drives at my company's location. One =
of our customer wants to be able to restore a NT4 client at its backup =
location with a DLT III drive. There's a standalone drive on our master =
which is also a DLT III. The NetBackup License we have is only for the =
site so we won't be able to use it. Even if we did, would we have to =
install a master/media on the backup site in order to restore (we don't =
use the DR files so we would have to install the system)?
    =20
    Anyway, how do you read a tape created with NetBackup from a windows =
system not running NetBackup ?=20
    Does the tar32 program on a windows client help me do the trick if I =
bring it on a separate CD ?
    Would I have to duplicate the tapes to my standalone using NetBackup =
?=20
    Would I be able to read my tape if I restore (NT4 client) on a Unix =
server and then tar (with a standard tar) everything back to my DLT =
drive ?

    Help will be greatly appreciated,

    Jerome
