Claude,
If you're doing a straight migration, in my experience, from the same
platform Windows 2 Windows, Solaris 2 Solaris, etc... Then stop NetWorker,
copy /nsr (Make sure you don't harm your old data for a rollback), start
NetWorker, delete all your Jukebox and Device info... (yes its a pain to
remove them from your media pools), add them in.
If you're going to do a NetWorker upgrade during this move, make sure you
put in the upgrade enabler BEFORE shutting down the old environment. If
you're licenses I highly recommend going to 7.5.1, seems pretty good to me
so far in terms of new features.
Hope that helps.
Alec
