As Stan said, this has been explained on this list before and you need to
check the NetWorker 7.6.1 release notes
I also recommend the following two guides
- the Installation Guide which contains upgrade instructions
- the Disaster recovery guide which, essentially, documents most of the
procedure you should follow.
Grab a copy of the command reference guide too. You need to learn about the
following commands:
savegrp (you are looking for option "-O")
mmrecov
mminfo
nsrck
And don't forget to try this procedure on a test environment first. It will
save days/weeks/months of grief.
You have made an question but haven't shown your homework.
If you have any questions about some of the procedures or commands
documented in the above guides, read again, and it it still not clear, then
feel free to ask for help on this list
keywords: bootstrap, mmrecov, "nsrck -L7", nsrdb, res, mminfo, "savegrp -O"
