BE2012 - Merging catalog data

Hi,

We have Backup Exec 2012 and we were running out of space on the C drive so we changed the path to the catalogs to the D drive. Now we need to merge the catalogs.

From what I understand all I need to do is copy the contents of the C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\<serverName> to D:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\<serverName>

and then run Catrebuildindex -r

1) Is this correct?

2) I noticed some dot SM files. Do I need to move these aswell?

3) I read that I would still need to do an inventory of the tapes...I beleive this only applies if you are moving from a different server....ie different BEDB. Is this correct?

 

thanks in advance for your help.
