1) You install the 5.3 client on Monday. 2) Backup runs Monday night. New SYSTEM STATE and SYSTEM SERVICES file spaces are created. Old SYSTEM OBJECT file space is left intact. 3) You discover some problem that requires you restore back to last Friday -- before you installed the 5.3 client. You will need the 5.2 client to restore the SYSTEM OBJECT. If the 5.3 client upgrade had expired your older 5.2 SYSTEM OBJECT file space, you would be in a difficult situation.
