How Snapshots Interact with Unicode HTTP HTTP integrates easily with Unicode and the SnapServer. If invalid UTF8 characters are encountered on the file system, the characters will be returned with an escape sequence. Escape sequences begin with {!^. The following two characters are the hexidecimal value of the characters in the file name; for example, you might see {!^AB in a file name. CA Antivirus CA Antivirus is not Unicode-aware. While the CA Antivirus UI displays garbled characters for extended characters when Unicode has been enabled, it can still scan files, find viruses, clean viruses, move, and rename virus-infected files. How Snapshots Interact with Unicode Snapshots taken before the SnapServer was converted to Unicode are not compatable with the SnapServer once it has become Unicode enabled. It is not recommended that a pre-Unicode snapshot be used to restore a post-Unicode server. Note It is recommended, if you have snapshots on your server from pre-Unicode conversion, you delete all snapshots once the server has been converted to Unicode. Backing Up Unicode Servers Backing up a Unicode-enabled SnapServer requires you to use specific methods depending on the type of client you have in use. It is recommended that like languages be used across the backup process. For example: Russian files on a localized Russian server should be backed up with a Unicode-compliant/Russian localized backup application. Mixing languages between applications can result in data corruption. Chapter 10 Unicode 143
