Hi George,
notice the clientid of the new client fred.
delete client fred.
switch on hidden attributes.
create a new client, may also be a dummy machine, on which you install
NetWorker for 5 minutes and networker server can reach this machine. In the
client id field, fill in the id of fred.
Now create fred again, he will get a new client id, now.
At least, delete the dummy client.
I testet this a couple of times, this is the shortest way to get a new client
id for an once created client.
regards
Klaus Grohal

Betreff: [Networker] Creating a new instance of an older client?
How can I create a new client if a client with that same host name
existed at some point in the past?
I added a new client (fred) using nwadmin. However, there was an old
client named fred that was taken off the backups a long time ago. After
creating the new client, I see that NetWorker assigned it the same
client id as the old fred. Maybe no surprise, but this is now a new
machine with the same host name, so I'd like it to have a different
client id than the previous one, so when I look at save set recover, I
won't see the save sets from before. How can I do this?
Thanks
George
