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]

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.
