On 3.2 you have to add the target to the new destination server. Under 3.11
you didn't have to do this.

ie. On our servers here to restore from a backup of server csd_tech (target
TEC_V1)  to server csd_is:

 Load the BP.NLM program at the destination Netware server console (csd_is)
and add a new target with the same name (TEC_V1) and namespace (Macintosh)
as the originating server (csd_tech). See the "Adding Target to Netware
Servers" section of the Netbackup Operations document. After the restore is
complete remove the new target from the destination server so the backups
won't backup the same  target twice.

It was kind of funny once I forgot to remove the target and ended up backing
up a target twice so a server with 30 gig of disk space was backing up 80
gigs worth of data :)

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NetWare non-target restore?


I need to restore data from one non-target configured NetWare NetBackup
client to another non-target NetWare client. My master server is a
Solaris 2.6 running NBU 3.2. 

I've read posts from this mailing list's archive on this issue doing
alternate client restores with the *target* configured clients, but have
found nothing on doing it with a non-target configuration. I actually
have an open ticket with Veritas on this right now, but haven't gotten a
resolution yet, so I thought I'd ask you.

Some things I've done/tried: 1) put a No.Restrictions file in
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/altnames on the NBU master. 2) Restoring from
one NetWare client to another using the master's Xbp GUI 3) Restoring
via the NetBackup Windows GUI for NetWare; with this is get a status
code 5 on the server, and a status code 25 on the client I'm trying to
restore from. 4) Verified the two involved NetWare clients know
eachother on the network, and are even in eachothers HOSTS file.

Does perhaps the bp.ini files on the NetWare clients need to have
eachother listed as clients?

Any suggestions?
