In regard to: Re: [Networker] Upgrading to 7.6.4.3 - general question,...:

Do not forget this: Look then at new hostid. It will change due to hw
platform change.

That's not true for Linux-based NetWorker servers.

On Linux, the hostid is the IP (v4) address.  If the IP doesn't change,
the hostid won't change, even when the hardware does.
