What exactly do you have in mind? If your two environments use the same tape
media, you can scan one server's tapes into the other, but it would be a
very slow process. You should also be running the same NetWorker version on
both servers. You should at least upgrade the older server to 7.3.2 so they
are on parity with one another.
