Server-Directed Restores
An administrator can use the Backup, Archive, and Restore client interface on the NetBackup master server to direct restores to any client, providing NetBackup on the client is configured to permit them. See the NetBackup User's Guide for UNIX or NetBackup User's Guide for Windows for more information.
Note
On UNIX systems, redirected restores can set the UIDs or GIDs incorrectly when the UIDs or GIDs are too long. When restoring files from one platform type to another, it is possible that UIDs and GIDs on one system may be represented with more bits on the source system than on the destination. This means that if the name for the UID/GID in question is not common to both systems, the original UID/GID could be invalid on the destination system. In this case, the UID/GID would be replaced with that of the user doing the restore.
