It's tempting isn't it to start upgrading OS or NetWorker versions at a
time like this? However, your priority should be to get your server back
up and running, so you should be giving yourself the best chance of
doing this in a timely manner, i.e. no changes to hardware or software.
I know it feels wrong to be rebuilding your box with NT4, but really you
should do this upgrade to a crucial system in a planned manner following
proper testing, without too many pressures on you to get it completed
yesterday.
From a technical point of view I don't know any reason why you
shouldn't mmrecov to a Windows 2000 server rather than an NT4 server,
although don't hold me to that. From a business point of view, and for
the sake your company's valuable data, you should probably not do this
just now.
