Hello Matthew

Thanks, that's just what I needed.    I figured it would be easy but didn't know
which command it would be.   Now I'm thinking that it should probably also have
the "-movedb" flag as well or is that also optional.   There's also a Note in
the man pages about not being able to use the "-movedb" option with NetBackup
BusinessServer, any ideas why that statement is there?   Naturally I'll probably
be doing some testing tomorrow on this but hey collecting info is good...

John,
           Fortunately, this should be pretty easy.  The command for which you
are looking is the "bpmedia" command.  For each media ID that belongs to the
media server that is going away, do the following:

bpmedia -ev <media_id> -newserver <media server that is staying> -oldserver
<one that is leaving>

The "-oldserver" piece is optional, but I use it just in case.

I use the following to do them all:

for MEDIA in `bpmedialist -h <server> | grep dlt | awk '{print $1}'; do
           bpmedia -ev $MEDIA -newserver <newserver> -oldserver <server> -v
done

Of course, change "dlt" to whatever your media type is.
                                                              --Matt--
