Assuming we're talking about the same goal (moving /nsr data from one disk
onto another, right?) I've just used the following procedure:

1.  shut down NetWorker
2.  create a tarball (tape?  disk?  whatever) of /nsr
3.  umount /nsr
4.  create new /nsr and mount it
5.  explode the tarball
6.  re-start NetWorker

So far, I've done this on (I think) six systems, without any problems,
usually with tarballs ranging 15-25 GB.  (In one case, my /nsr fs was 66GB
before I went to tar it up, so I had to use GNUtar instead so that I could
span tapes.  Again, no problem whatsoever.)

        Subject:        [Networker] Moving /nsr/index in 6.1.2


Hello all,

Has anyone had success with moving the indexes in Networker 6.1.2?  I read
I can move them with UNIX cp command but wanted to ask the field to see if
there is a better way.


Thanks in advance.

PS - The reason for the move is I'm moving my /nsr directory currently
mounted on an EMC Sym to another, seperate EMC Sym.
