Anyway ....). So
I have completely rebuilt my NW server, manually adding clients, jobs,
etc.
I used to have a set of directives, that would ignore certain open
files
(temp files, locks, etc). Unfortunately, during my attempts at
fixing, I
had to mmrecov my old server with an older tape, and they all got
written
over. But I have other bootstrap tapes from before the corruption
started,
that should have the directives on them.
SO my question - how can I retrieve *just* the directives from my old
bootstrap tape? I don't trust the validity of the mm database (hence
my
clean break, and re-install, and Tech Support concurred), but I really
don't feel like re-entering all the directives. So is there any way to
restore just the directives, and re-direct them to a new directory?
Move the recovered /nsr/res file to a different machine, install the
same version of NetWorker you have in production. Keep the other
server off-line (so it doesn't shut down the production server due to
a license conflict) and you should be able to see the directives and
copy and paste them to a text file.
