Eeeewwwwwww.....That can be extremely ugly!!!! We've had to bring in Netbackup Consulting Services to do this type of work so that the new environment would be supported by Symantec after the move/migration is done. It's isn't cheap, but it's is well worth a good working environment.

Any scripts available to ease the process of migration? Anyone ever done this before? Could anyone point me the steps taken in order to move forward? It's been done but it is absolutely, positively not supported. If you break it, you get to keep both pieces. It's not for the faint of heart and to pull it off you'll be modifying binary files directly. It may take you multiple attempts. Depending on the size of your environment, you may find it easier (and it's supportable) to set up a parallel environment on the new server and start moving the clients to the new master. It makes it fun at restore time since you have to know which master was responsible for the backup at the time. If you don't have a lot of tapes, import the old tapes into the new master. This is a supported operation and will get you the media and catalog information into your new master. If you've got a thousand tapes, though, this isn't going to be very practical. .../Ed Ed Wilts, RHCE, BCFP, BCSD, SCSP, SCSE [email protected] ************************************************************************* The information contained in this communication is confidential, is intended only for the use of the recipient named above, and may be legally privileged.
