Hi Morgan
Best thing to do is connect your robot / tape drives and install NetBackup to the same level of Maintenenace Pack as before and then from a CLI use BPRECOVER -l -m <MediaCode> -d <TapeFormat>
 
If it helps, sometimes its best to make a record of what the barcodes are for catalog tapes, or store in a certain slot or take out each week or alternate.
 
If you cannot find the media, then depending on how many tapes, you could import each tape (may take 3 -4 hours per tape though).

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Restore Netbackup from catastrophic failure of MasterServer

I am trying to recover my NetBackup and system data (catalog db and system partitions) from my tape library. My master server (UNIX) crashed and was unrecoverable.

I have reloaded Solaris and rebuilt my Partitions. I do not have the data anywhere else. (Screwed up config I know, but I didn’t build it) I have been through the disaster recovery section of the manual. I cannot find my catalog tape. I cannot get NetBackup working correctly. (I am going to have to reinstall it)

I need to know how to find my catalog Tape?????
