I'm doing the same, in reverse, and there are no official documents. The file formats are different between the two systems and the only supported method is using Veritas consulting.
Yeah.
Obviously there is a problem with UNIX trying to utilize a file that has a space in it's pathname like C:\Program Files\Director 0f IT\Golf Spreadsheet.xls
I have heard of people going from UNIX to Windows OK after first converting the catalog from binary to ascii.
I have also seen some threads around talking about using bpimport of ALL tapes. Yecch!
If you have a lab then go ahead and play around with it first. Otherwise, VERITAS consulting may end up as very cheap insurance in the long run.

Just because the VERITAS documentation states a certain thing does not make it a fact and thats the truth
