[Veritas-bu] Netbackup migration from 5.0 to 6.5, with server name change
2008-12-02 15:58:53
Hello, very new to the NBU world. This is my first post here. I need to
migrate/upgrade our existing 5.0MP3 netbackup to 6.5.
Here is my setup
Old server: Netbackup 5.0MP3 (running on a single linux box) connected to a
SCSI tape library.
New Server: Netbackup 6.5.2 on linux, 1 master, and 1 media server
New servers will have new sernames, from what I have gathered so far here is
the rough plan.
1. install NBU 5.1 on one master and one media server (my understanding is
db/catalogs file are unchanged from 5.0 to 5.1)
2. add the FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER = oldservername newservername to bp.conf
*import the master server catalog files from 5.0MP3 to the 5.1 Master server.
then
*import media server catalog files from 5.0MP3 to the 5.1 media server.
Question: since I won't be connecting the tape library to the new media just
yet, should I use recover or import?)
3. Verify it works, then upgrade from 5.1 to 6.5
Are these the correct steps to do the job? Any suggestion?
Thanks
