Right Ed ... the DR site across the street is still on our
company campus.
Currently it is just for testing and provides an
alternative if the main datacenter
has power issues or like you said flood or
fire.
Right the hot catalog is out with 6 so our media servers
are NB 6 version.
After some more research it seems that we may look into
Veritas Cluster Replicator
to update the DR server catalog on a regular. I am also
understanding that NB 6.5 has
resolved the issue of needing the Host Override Options.
That you can restore using a different media server
then the one originally used for the
backup.
Thanks to both of you for assistance

Realizing that this wasn't your point in
writing, but... a DR site
_across the street?_
It depends on the scope of the disaster. There's nothing wrong
with one across the street if the disaster you're trying to prevent is a fire or
flood in your main data center. For many companies, having a building
across the street is all they can afford and a *lot* better than no DR site at
all.

Why/how? Your prod media servers aren't still 5.x, are
they?
Hot catalog backups were not supported until 6.0.
