We have Mac users that copy files onto an NT Server. The NT Server is backed up by
Tivoli. All older Mac files that were backed up by ADSM have now lost there MAC header
(they are shown as PC files now). Mac doesn't recognize the files unless the user adds
a file extension to the filename. Thousands of files have been corrupted. Has anyone
seen a similar problem after upgrading? Does anyone know of a fix? I currently have a
PMR open with Tivoli Support. I opened the ticket last week and the support guy told
me that the files must have been touched by a PC somewhere along the way. This is not
the case, the files were fine before the upgrade. All new files that are put on the
MAC Volume of the NT server are fine when backed up by Tivoli. Something must have
happened to the older files when we upgraded to Tivoli.
Here's our environment:
Mac user copies files to mounted Mac Volume on NT 4.0 Service Pack 6 server running
Tivoli client 3.7.2.19. The NT server gets backed up by Tivoli 3.7.4.3 running on AIX
4.3.2 server. The files go straight to 3494 tape library and are kept on tape for 26
months.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kim McCubbin
