As far as I know UNIX and windows NetBackup databases are not compatible. I
haven't tried but the problem must be at the carriage return of the image
files. It is something that you need a script to overcome.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Master Server Migration Question

 

I did this a few years ago - cooked a Windows and two Solaris masters down
onto one Solaris master. It was non-trivial, there were several file
conversions, definitely not for the faint of heart. Have your Perl/Shell
scripting skills handy, because you will need them. Let me see if I can dig
up my notes. They may be of some help. Caveat: I did this under 4.5.

Hello Everybody:

I have a quck question regarding NBU Master server migration. We are
currently in the process of beginning to plan a migration of our Solaris 9
v5.1 Master/Media server to a v5.1 Windows platform.

We are planning on doing the following:

1. Build Windows NBU Master/Media Server with the same name as the exisitng
Solaris Master Media.

2. Perform a catalog backup of the existing Solaris Master/Media server.

3. Move existing library to new master/Media server.

4. Perform a catalog recovery on the new Windows Master/Media server using
the catalog backup performed from the original Solaris Master.

Does anyone know if this will work or if there are any file conversion
needed when restoring the catalog created on a Solaris Master to a Windows
Master of the same name?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Regards,

Daryl Katauskas
