Suzanne,
This has happened to me in a NT environment so I feel your pain. This was an
easy fix, using the "bprecover" command. You might want to verify the UNIX
switches for this command.

Howdy all! I have a bit of a situation and was hoping for some expert
advice.
Somebody* accidently fried the root partition of my netbackup server,
so now it won't boot. For various reasons I won't get into, the
problem will not be resolved any time soon.
I was already in the process of building a new netbackup server, with
the intention of transitioning my backups off the old server (because
I was feeling paranoid that somebody* was gonna break it one of these
days. Which they did, but I wish I'd had a week or two of warning
first...), so I have that available. Both run (or ran) Datacenter 3.4
on sparc Solaris (old: 2.6, new: 8)
So... I have the catalog from the old server backed up onto DLT tapes,
and I have all my backups. Is there a way I can import the catalog
info from the old dead server onto my new, nobody-but-me-has-root
server? Can I import my existing volumes (and their data) intact?
Alternately, is there a utility I can use to manually wade through the
DLTs themselves for whatever I might need?
Thanks!
-Suzanne
