Is site 2 a media server being run from site 1's master?  I assume that's
what you mean because otherwise your question doesn't make any sense.  Look
in the docs at (1) bpmedia -movedb and (2) FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER in
bp.conf

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Using a different server to restore files from which
were used to back it up.

Good day everyone,

I have two sites, lets call them site 1 and site 2.
I use site 1 to back up file A.
I take the tape to site 2 and add it into the library and do an inventory.

I then try to restore file A from site 2.

The job will hang waiting for the media to be placed in the changer at site
1.

Both sites have Identical changers,
Site 1 is the master server and site 2 is a media server.

Has anyone managed to do what I am trying to achieve?

Thanks,
D
