We have a similar situation, and considered merging two masters.  However we ruled that out because of the complexity of
the tape libraries and tapes, and the backup catalog..  In our situation we have two geographical locations, one is Solaris, the
other Windows.

I can be done, but it is strongly suggested that  Symantec Netbackup consulting be hired to assist.

It is non=trivial.

Good Luck

[Veritas-bu] Merge 2 Master Servers





My group has been requested to take over the backups from another group.  I have no interest in having multiple master servers, so I want to merge the 2 environments.

I figure my first issue is that my environment is 6.5 and theirs is 5.1.  So, I plan on upgrading them to 6.5 before I do anything.

Next, I need to make sure that they have no duplicate media ids.  I don't have to worry about duplicate host names.

Anybody ever do this?  If so, any information would be appreciated.
