If you go all the way to NB 6.5.2 or higher (and I'd definitely recommend not stopping there), you've got an additional optional available for bpmedia that does not require the old servers still be around. The work seems to happen entirely within the EMM database and is a heck of a lot faster than moving individual tapes anyway. =)
 
bpmedia:
  -freeze|-unfreeze|-suspend|-unsuspend -m <media_id> [-h <hostname>] [-v]
  -movedb -m <media_id> -newserver <hostname>
        [-newsvr_group <groupname>] [-oldserver <hostname>] [-v]
  -movedb -allvolumes -newserver <hostname> -oldserver <hostname> [-v]

Subject: [Veritas-bu] create mediaDB entry

Hi All

 

In our step towards upgrading to 6.5.1 from 5.1 MP6 it has become apparent that some media servers where not decommissioned correctly in the passed causing inconsistencies between the media and image catalogs.

 

We have 2 media servers that I do no have a copy of the mediaDB file.

 

The image catalog is easy enough to manipulate and reflect an existing media server with  bpimage however this still leaves this missing entry in the new media servers mediaDB.

 

Does any know how I can create a new entry for the necessary media (from the missing mediaDB’s) into the existing media servers mediaDB? bpmedia –movedb requires the old server to be up and running.

 

Thanks in advance.
