AIR - Source Windows or Others, Target Solaris

Simple Question can I have a Source Windows Master and Replicate to a Solaris 10 Target Master in a OneToOne configuration? and if is posible it will be too much to ask to have different OS Source Flavors and a single OS Target? is all this posible with AIR?

 

Appreciate any help.

Best Regards.

    I have tried the one-to-one configuration,  mine being Linux source --> Windows target. It works.

    As per the AIR admin guide (http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH153154), it does support one-to-many & many-to-one, although didn't mention about different OS. Given my test above works, I believe it should work - just don't have that many master servers for me to play with :P

    I second watsons post; AIR works across different OS and i've tested the same with Windows 2008 R2 (Source) and Solaris 10 (Target).

    Me too.

    I tested this for one of my customer, they have Solaris at PR and Have windows Master server at DR. We have AIR enabled in between and is working without any issues.

    It's NetBackup which communicates and deals with Storage Server beyond Operating platform barrier (One of NBU beauty i can say)

    you may continue using it.
