It works fine, but the I can't get rid of the old media servers from the
"Devices" " Hosts".  They are offline / deactived, but when I go to
delete them I am getting 

"Unable to remove device host Servername from the Enterprise Media
Manager Server Masterservername: The EMM server failed to process the
request(78)."  And the only thing I can think of is the old media server
names are still tied in with the current media...

I have a case w/ Veritas but am not getting much help there.

Thanks
Dan

That sounds right, do a test restore to make sure it works!
