I have been doing some testing with BMR and we are trying to implement it 
into our environment.  Restoring to the same box works great, however, 
when I attempt to mimic a DR type situation and restore to different 
hardware, things are much different.  Because the MAC address is different 
NBU throws an error.  We are running 6.5.3.1.  In testing with this single 
system, I was able to do a scan and pull the new hardware's MAC 
information and then create a new restore profile under bare metal 
restore.  Once I do this, NBU allows the restore to run, however, this 
solution does not seem to be the best for taking 200+ systems to DR.  Is 
there any way to tell Netbackup to ignore the Mac address information? 
Having to add all the machines to be allowed to perform BMR is one thing 
as that can be done tediously before heading to DR, but having to then 
scan and make profiles of all the new hardware at DR does not seem to be 
the answer.

Is there any easy way around this (ignoring Mac address information)? 
Also, is there an easy way to add all the clients to the client attributes 
list, other than manually?
