Question1 makes sense. Same as saying revert back from windows 20003 AD back
to NT4 flat. Different kind of database where users/computers ect are
stored.

And yes, nbpushdata may well need to be done again.

Keep us advised.....

not working)?


My questions and what I found out:

Can I revert from 6.0MPx to 5.1MP4 via a catalog backup? No, the restore
puts the actual EMM stuff back and does not "down covert it" back to the 5.1
format.

After I installed 5.1MP4 again from scratch and ran ./bprecover -l dpath
/path/catalog, it "appeared" to recover my catalog, I restarted services in
NB6.0 and nothing happened.

Apparently, one must run the nbpushdata after a bprecover? Trying this now.

Justin.
