The SR10 transition class I took could not come upt with a conclusive answer. SR9.7 nodes are supposed to be able to have file access to SR10 nodes and vice-versa, but the class supervisor wasn't certain whether the SR9.7 version of WBAK/RBAK could handle the SR10 ACL's correctly, and he could not find out whether there was a version of the SR10 WBAK/RBAK that had been compiled to run under SR9.7. I have not found anything in the SR10 release notes (as far as I've read so far) that gives me any hints, my tape drive is attached to a DSP80 which can not be upgraded to run SR10. Can anyone give me a definitive answer as to whether I'll be able to run backups on my SR10 master node? -- David Krowitz We have 400 sr97 nodes and maybe 6-10 sr10 nodes. Our backups are done exclusively on sr97 and we have noticed NO problems. Don Peacock University of Michigan donp@caen.engin.umich.edu
