Matthew - From my notes:
File attributes File attributes are not available at
the server via SQL Select queries: the
attribute information is only available
via the same kind of client you used to
back up the file. That is, if you used
the Windows client to back up a file,
only the Windows client can get the file
attributes.
While the server does store the
attributes given to it by the client,
it does not kow how to interpret them,
nor is there any way to get them in
their "raw" (uninterpreted) format.
File attributes are reported by the
Backup/Archive client GUI (but not the
CLI dsmc Query Backup).
Note also that some operating systems (Unix) don't record file creation time.
