I appreciate the responses so far but none has really answered my
question, which I probably didn't explain well.  So I'll try asking it a
different way.

If I take the catalog from NBU master server A and I want to have a fresh
NBU master installation recognize that catalog and use it as its own what
would I need to change on server B.  Would I need to change the system's
hostname?  If so that means doing this in a clustered environment could
get ugly if you have to change the hostname as part of the server
failover.  What other changes (bp.conf maybe?) would need to be made on B
to make it read A's catalog?

Thanks.
