2218.0. "SLS v2.7 vs. SLS 2.9" by NIOPS2::PROS (Deb Archambault) Thu Mar 13 1997 07:59

    Hi,
    
    I have a client system that was recently upgraded to VMS 7.1 and also
    upgraged there SLS to B2.9-1 
    
    Will this work with the server which is at SLS v2.7????
    
    *  I cannot upgrage the server as there are too many other clients running
    to the server and do not want to upgrade them....   
    
    *  Do I need to have the customer add a SLS server database to support
    his new version of SLS 2.9???
    
    
    
    :/

    In addition to my first note...   
    
    His backups are currently running ...   Can I restore his files if he
    is running V2.9 of SLS and I'm running V2.7 ????

No, the V2.7 server will do.

Yes, from the client using STORAGE RESTORE/SCREEN and AUTO in the Volume ID
field, or use STORAGE REPORT SYSTEM <file-spec> on the client to get the volume
and saveset info and STORAGE RESTORE on the server with that volume and saveset.
