I answered my own questions from some experimentation. Snapshots are lost
when transferring StorageSets. But now I realize that the bigger problem is
that if I create CD-ROMs for the client, they can't be read without a CD-R
unit, which the client doesn't have. I'm now wondering what the best way is
of reclaiming the $600 invested in Jaz cartridges. Perhaps I should do a
restore and burn the restored files onto CDs? I would lose snapshots, but
that would have been the case anyway if I have preserved the StorageSets
during the transfer.
Any suggestions out there?
