GOAL:

GOAL:
Does probkup have cross-platform compatibility?
GOAL:
Does Progress support cross-platform probkup?
GOAL:
Does Progress support cross-platform prorest?
GOAL:
Can you restore on Windows a probkup created on UNIX?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
FIX:
Currently, Progress doesn't support cross-platform compatibility of probkup files, regardless of whether those backup files were created online or offline.
There can be compatibility of probkups between certain UNIX platforms, but the practice isn't supported and should be avoided.
