I did not install ICS myself, the installbp program asked for the path
of the installics script and it installed it itself, so I don't not know
if the FQDN was used or not.

After I rediscover the devices, will all my media definition and catalog
be present ? All my previous backups will be available or will I start
from scratch ?

thanks

I had the same issues, you need to re-discover all of the missing
devices 
or do it from hand.  Once you fix that though -- you should be ok.

Make sure you follow the upgrade procedure revision B and also when you 
install ICS, do not use FQDN.
