Catalog Import

I have taken backup using openstorage into my storage device. 

But storage device IP is being modified from 10.11.5.181 to 10.11.5.182(Still i want use the same store from storage server) after first full backup.

Say,

      10.11.5.181 : STU1

     10.11.5.182 : STU2

Now NBU has the catalog entries, is there any way to import these? 

Is this a valid scenario, can i import backup images if i change the IP address?

Note : STU is created using IP not host name

 if i run stage-1 import on this catalog entry choosing target as STU2, import is success full, but when i search for import entries for stage-2, i could not able to find the same, Error : INF Found no image matching selection criteria. ...

    Only way I can think of is using the guide for replacing the server hardware in the dedup guide.

    But would recommand to use a name as you then just have to change the dns record/hosts file entry when changing an ip adresse

    Thanks for your response.

    DO you mean import in this scenario is not possible or invalid?

    We are using the same server with IP change.

    Do you mean Import is not possible or invalid in this case?

    In princip are what you are doing replacing the storage server seen from the netbackup dedup perspective,

    import is only a part of the process of replacing a storage server
