Hi Stan

Make sure that the block size of the SCSI HBA used on your new Solaris
NetWorker server is the same as that of your old Tru64 NetWorker Server.

Also, for giggles, try running scanner over the tape in don't-write-to-disk
mode.  You may want to do this on both your old and new NetWorker servers.
If you get different results, find out why before moving forward.  It's
important to fix this now, or you may not be able to read with confidence
any of your already-written tapes.

Good luck
tl

Thanks Terry; that seems to have gotten me through the woods as far as
jbconfig is concerned.

Prior to this migration is did a "savergp -O -l full <group>" with
the group being a group in which all the clients are a member of.

Now, when I put in the latest bootstrap tape in /dev/rmt/1cbn and issue an
mmrecov, I get a bunch of errors I have not seen before. Any suggestions
you may have on how to address this problem will be appreciated too:

What is the name of the device you plan on using [/dev/rmt/0cbn]?
/dev/rmt/1cbn
Enter the latest bootstrap save set id: 3238893313
Enter starting file number (if known) [0]: 274
Enter starting record number (if known) [0]: 0

Please insert the volume on which save set id 3238893313 started
into /dev/rmt/1cbn.  When you have done this, press <RETURN>:

Scanning /dev/rmt/1cbn for save set 3238893313; this may take a while...
