Restore Backup From tape via backup exec to a new Server (SOME ONE SAVE ME)

Hello everybody.
recently my company was invaded by ransomware, which encrypted all servers and their respective files

before this happened, I used a server where I had configured backup exec 15, but it was also encrypted including the application. I installed a new server and backup exec and I want to add the tapes to recover the backups from the old server. Someone can help me?

I use an HP storage tape model: Storeserver 1/8 g2 tape Autoloader and the backup exec version 21 in server 2019

so: Windows server 2019

21
Backup Exec
Backup Exec - 15
Backup Exec 21
Windows Server 2019

    I am assuming the tape library is discovered by BE at this point. You can go to the storage tab and run an inventory on the library slots. Then catalog the tape. After the catalog completes, you should be able to view the sets in it. Then depending on which server you would like to restore follow the DR document for that application server. Admin Guide has sections about manual disaster recovery for different servers and application https://www.veritas.com/content/support/en_US/doc/59226269-140215363-0/index
