Re: Problem reading a backup set tape on UNIX client

Doug,
You can't do that, or at least that's what I was told. If you create the
backupset on a Win server, you can only perform a local backupset restore
on a Win server. Creating a backupset on a Win server and attempting to
restore locally on a Unix client doesn't work (different tape formats).
