Try nbemmcmd -listhosts -verbose

I would expect that you would see an entry for NODE03 with an alias or something for HOME1. You can add/change existing entries, so I believe all you'll need to do is remove HOME1 from NODE03 and then you can add it as a comletely new san media server. You may want to just remove NODE03 altogether, assuming it's completely gone now. But make sure you clean up NBU (stunits, devices, move any media to another server, etc.) before you delete it from emm.

If you have media on home1, you would also need to move that. Basically, you need to treat this as decommissioning a media server (home1) and then when you add home1 back, you can move any media back to that server if you wish.

Ive had to log a call with Symantec, but its a real, real problem :-((

The original PHYSICAL SERVER was NODE03. The Virtual Name was HOME1
nbemmcmd -listhosts shows NODE03 but it does not show the new Media Server HOME1

Cant add it, as it believes it exists.
Because Media is obviously assigned to NODE03 and possibly HOME1, I think this is causing the biggest headaches!

Not even sure if I can change NODE03 to become HOME1 or something?? Dont see anything that can help !
Simon

Hi Guys
I have migrated over to new hardware, and went to install a new SAN Media Server, and although the install is fine, no errors and services are started, I have a problem...

When running Device Config Wizard, my Server name is not appearing!

Originally my new SAN Media Server (Home1) was part of a cluster. HOME1 was a virtual name. the Physical was NODE03

When I logon to HOME1, and launch the NetBackup Admin Console, and select the Server name I get this message:

"The server SERVER1 is not a NetBackup Master or Media Server. Please choose a different server"
But it is ... got the license installed as well.

If I goto the master, type in NBEMMCMD -listhosts it is not listed. But if I run the command.... I get this result

nbemmcmd -addhost -machinename HOME1 -machinetype media -masterserver NBUMaster -netbackupversion 6.5.6 -operatingsystem windows

NBEMMCMD, Version:6.5.6
Host already exists in the EMM database.
Command did not complete successfully.

This used to be a VIRTUAL NAME Server Entry for a Box that has died. A decision was taken to give the NEW Server HOME1

I think this is part of the problem, but I am unable to find a resolution to this !! Any ideas???

Regards

Simon
