I would like to change the media server that I recover from in a veritas
5.1 MP4 Windows 2003 environment. I have managed to successfully do this
by using the command bpimage -newserver nbumedia -oldserver nbumaster.
What exactly is the command doing when it is run? Is it accessing every
image in the database. At present it takes about 45 seconds to complete.
Can I expect this time to increase as my catalog size increases?

 

Unfortunatley I have not been able to successfully use the bpimage
command to change the media server for just one backup ID (using the
-backupid syntax). The sysntax is accepted correctly but the bpimage
appears to have made the changes for all images rather than the backupid
that I specified.

 

Finally, Is anybody successfully using the hosts properties option of
'override media server. When I use this option and restart the services
there is no change in the media server used to restore data. 

 

Thanks for any help with these queries.

 

Mark
