RE: Compatibility with 6.4

Backups created with 7.3 can be restored using 6.4, except when the backup created in 7.3 is encrypted with a unicode password.

E.g. this backup can be restored by 6.4

Code:

EXEC master..sqlbackup '-sql "BACKUP DATABASE model TO DISK = [<AUTO>] WITH PASSWORD = [password_value]"'

but this cannot be restored:

Code:

EXEC master..sqlbackup N'-sql "BACKUP DATABASE model TO DISK = [<AUTO>] WITH PASSWORD = [杨立文]"'
