Bart,

I did a quick google search and found this Symantec article.  It seemed to me 
that once you import the zpool housing these images to the other media server, 
you shouldn't need to import them but instead would need to make the new media 
server the owner of these images ?  if that is the case and you are effectively 
decommissioning the old media server, the article below should help you out.

I'm not sure if you should change the ownership of the images before or after 
you export the zpool.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] import a ZFS filesystem holding images

A File system on an HP disk system is presented to multiple SUN Media Servers.  
This filesystem is used as DSSU (holding DSSU images)  Only 1 is accessing the 
file system.  When that Media Server however goes down we want to import that 
filesystem on another Media Server (SUN import zpool command).

Is this supported by Symantec (I created a case but wanted to check the forum 
as well) ?  Will NetBackup know that these images are already known to the 
catalog and will this work transparently ?
