Hi,

 

Sounds good. I?ll think I go with nr 2. 

I also need to get all my policies and other settings over to the SUSE
server, but I think if I copy over /usr/openv/netbackup/db, I have the most
important stuff there
Then I manually have to move hosts file, scripts and
other stuff that is outside of /usr/openv/netbackup/db to the new SUSE
server.

 

I am I missing something else?`

 

Thanks,

I would offer the following scenario:

 

Leave the HP in place for 30 days after your new SUSE is in place and
running.  After the 30 days, most of the media/images may be expired and you
won't have to worry about "migrating" the images.

 

After the 30 days is up, you would have 2 options:

 

1.  attach the old library to the SUSE master, inventory the tapes, import
the tapes, duplicate the images to the new media type.

2.  attach the old library to the SUSE master, inventory the tapes, copy the
/usr/openv/netbackup/db/images directory from the HP server to the SUSE and
use the old library for restores only.

 

Option 2 is a lot like the DR recovery process that is described in a tech
note on Veritas.

 

You can do it across Unix Masters, but not Unix to Windows.  (you can do it
across Windows masters, but not Win to Unix).

Hi,

 

What is the easiest way to move a master (and media) server from HP-UX to
SUSE 9? Copy over the db catalog?

The SUSE server will have a new different library and media type, the old
library will be attached to the SUSE server for migrating backups from old
tape to new once.

 

Thanks and regards,
