Hello,

Goal:
Move a robot to a new location, using new master and media servers and
different hostnames and continue backing up once the robot is attached to
the new master and media servers at the new site, leaving existing data
untouched and available for restore.

Situation:
Need to move a robot and its tapes to a different building, under a new
master + media servers using different hostnames than the original.

Problem:
Do not want to have to re-import all of the tapes manually to the new
master+media server environment.

Possible solution: Disaster recovery using partial catalog recovery in
NetBackup

Questions:
Has anyone verified this document to work with NBU 7.1 in terms of moving a
robot as I have suggested above?
I have opened a case with Symantec and they stated it should work but was
looking for some re-assurance ahead of time/before testing and going further
down this route.

Justin.
