Re: [Veritas-bu] Changing Windows master to Linux master

12:29 PM If it is possible, I would run 2 parallel
environments, one being your existing and the other being the new with
your linux master. Start backing up to the new and keep the old around
until all of your backup images expire. I went from an AIX master
to Linux which is entirely doable without all of the professional
services
hubub, but it was easier to me to just migrate to the new through
attrition.
This is what I did when faced with a similar situation.
The one caveat is you cannot share a
media server between the two master servers. If you have only a single
tape subsystem that cannot be shared between two hosts, that will limit
your options.
In case the OP doesn't know this, FYI many libraries can do
"partitioning" so that each server sees part of the library and some of
the tape drives.
