Hi List,

We are planning to upgrade one of our media servers from Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 
8.
This will require a reinstallation of NetBackup 4.5 and also a patch install to 
MP4.
That piece seems straight forward enough.  

However, I am not certain how I should proceed with getting the media server's 
database
and image pieces back.  My plan is to do something like the following:

 - We currently backup (via the NetBackup catalog) the following pieces from 
the media server:
        
      /usr/openv/var
      /usr/openv/netbackup/db
      /usr/openv/volmgr/databases

 - If I (after the NetBackup install and patching) run a bprecover of the 
following files, 
   will my environment be back to what it was prior to the OS upgrade?  Are we 
missing files? I 
   realize I will have to save my bp.conf and other customizations, etc.  My 
big concern is being 
   able to run restores from images that were run on this media server prior to 
the upgrade.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
