Re: [Veritas-bu] Restores timing out after retiring a media server

Been there, done that..... !
Even came back after a Holiday in 2006 to a complete disaster
where our Media Servers were completely destroyed, and it causes mayhem! Worse
still, I had to recover without any Catalog backups!
Looks like I missed a
few key steps. Luckily, I can bring the old Media Server back up and take
care of this.
Thanks for all the
help…

What process or
procedure did you use?
It sounds like you may
have to use bpmedia command and specify the media ID from the
<retired_server> to your Master Server.
Take a look at this:
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH52021
An extract from the
document under Step 3:
If both <old_server> and <new_server> are at NetBackup 6.0MP7
or later, or NetBackup 6.5.2 or later, run the following
command:
bpmedia -movedb -allvolumes
-oldserver <old_server> -newserver
<new_server>

after retiring a media server
All:
Our
environment, HP-UX 11-31 currently running one master / media server on
NetBackup 6.5.2. We are running mostly unix / Linux backups and a couple
windows b/u’s thrown in for good measure.
We were
running with a master and a media server and have retired the media
server. I have changed all the policies to use the master as the media
server and am having no problems with backups. The problem is when I try
to restore something that was backed up when we had the separate media
server. For the Source Client in the restore gui, if I don’t point to the
old media server, I don’t see the files that I need to restore. If I point
to the old media server, I see everything I need but because the machine is
down, the restore times out.
Did I miss
something in the process of retiring the media server that is causing
this? Anyone have any ideas / suggestions?
Thanks in
advance….
