I have one of those why questions.... The decom steps according to Windows admin guide II page 105
Step 2 says to change owner of tapes from old media server to new media server. Step 3 says to add the line to bp.conf for the FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER so any restore request for media that the old server owned is done by the new server. Well in step 2 I change the owner - so why do step 3? What is still in the database that would require the bp.conf entry? _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
