Hi All 
 
We are implementing a Master server migration with hostname change.
 
As our window for this work is tight, we are trying to think of the best
possible way to take a copy of /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images
to the new master server.
 
now on both master servers /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images is a link to
to locally attached disk /catalog
 
Both masters have a locally presented disk /catalog which is presented
by Veritas volume manager. 
As we do not have the license to use veritas volume manager between
servers this it what I'm thinking :
 
present a new  LUN from HDS to both master servers, use Veritas volume
manager on the on the  old master server to create a third copy on new
LUN and then use HDS Shadow Image to mirror the two LUNS,  on the new
master server replicate all data on the newly presented LUN to /catalog
 
Essentially on the day of migration I would merely have to split the HDS
shadow image mirror when duplexed and once happy that /catalog on the
new master has the correct data, remove the volume manager mirror 
 
Question is I suppose, is there likely to be a problem with two volume
managers using the same disks i.e. HDS shadow copy and Vrts VM mirroring
the same LUNS  ???
 
 
Much appreciated
 
Dave
