Hi Ron,

What you would normally do is to do full backup with bootstrap on the old 
server and then do a disaster recovery on the new server. That way you would 
move the whole networker installation. Be aware that you will need to do a 
"host transfer" of your licenses. But you can run for a total of 45 days on the 
new server with the old licenses just as long as it doesn't "see" the old 
server on the network.

The management GUI called NMC is a java web-start based system, and runs fine 
on every platform that has a Oracle(Sun) java installation. The NMC server can 
be the networker server itself, a storage node or any other PC or server that 
can reach the NetWorker server through the network. EMC recommends that you do 
not install NMC on your NetWorker server, but many people do without issues.

Emne: [Networker] Moving Networker software from one server to another

Is there a document somewhere which outlines what needs to be done to 
transfer/move Networker from one server to another server?

Also is there a Unix-based management GUI or only a Windows version?

thanks
