The Subject header says "solaris to linux". The body of the message
refers to "solaris to windows". Do you mean Windows or Linux? If it's
Linux, there's less involved.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] can netbackup be moved from solaris to linux
> is it possible to move netbackup from a solaris server to a windows
server?
Possible, yes. Supported no.
> the main goal is to be able to recover the data that has been backed
up by
the solaris 5.1 netbackup server using the windows 5.1 netbackup
server. it
is just the data that is on the tapes that is required. the policies,
tape
libraries etc are not important.
> Is is possible to scan in a tape from the solaris netbackup server to
the
catalog of the win nbu server and recover the data?
Yes, this would be a fully supportable operation. Create a brand new
Windows master server environment and then import the tapes on the
Windows
server. Depending on how many tapes you, however, this could take a
long
time. What some people do is to create a new environment and run the 2
in
parallel for a while. Then after a significant number of tapes have
expired
from the old environment, do an import on the remainder long-term
tapes.
Technically, this isn't a catalog "move" - it's a new environment with
imported catalog data.
