Its cool, doing it when its quiet and no activity going on. Im on the right path, and have made a DR image of the current server, so even if I need to get something back, I can do that :-)

But as you've deduced, no catalogue recovery is required for these changes (unless this media server is hosting your EMM DB, but I've assumed that's on your master).

My feeling was that 6.x and 7.0 may not required a restore of Cat BU - As its a SAN Media, same IP / server / platform, just different hardware, it should be ok. That is what my feeling is.

You may have to install netbackup on new media server and move the volume database from old to new media server And to update the EMM database we can run the nbemmcmd -updatehost command for the new media server. Anyone has better options please do share. Thanks, Saran On Tue, Apr 5, 2011 at 1:41 AM, WEAVER, Simon (external) <simon.wea...@astrium.eads.net> wrote: Morning Just a quick question. I have a SAN Media Server on legacy hardware, Win2k3 x86 NBU 7.0.1 and I need to migrate this to newer hardware. I noticed under the Hot-Cat-Backup Wizard, I only have option to recover full or partial catalog. So question is, if I shutdown the old Media Server, and install new Media Server, same Server Name / IP, is the EMM going to be happy with this? I was going to shutdown all services / processes, backup the NetBackup Folder \ Registry and once I done the new clean install, Shutdown Services, import the registry and NetBackup folder and restart services.
