Re: [Veritas-bu] Changing Windows master to Linux master

If it is possible, I would run 2 parallel
environments, one being your existing and the other being the new with
your linux master. Start backing up to the new and keep the old around
until all of your backup images expire. I went from an AIX master
to Linux which is entirely doable without all of the professional services
hubub, but it was easier to me to just migrate to the new through attrition.
The one caveat is you cannot share a
media server between the two master servers. If you have only a single
tape subsystem that cannot be shared between two hosts, that will limit
your options.

Changing Windows master to Linux master

I want to change my windows master to a linux master.
Is this doable? I am told by symantec that the catalog directory
structure and the block sizes written differ between the 2 and this will
require professional services to accomplish. Has anyone done this?
