Catalog transfert to new server in windows

Hi all.

I want to replace my Netbackup 7.1 master serveur (Windows 2008 R2) and his robot (TLD), but hardware and Hostname will be différent, is there a way to transfert/ import catalog from old server to the new one?

Regards

  • There is no way to 'import a catalog'. You can only recover catalog from a backup to same hostname.

    You can either import all tapes one-by-one or get consulting services from Symantec Catalog Manipulation partner to migrate to new hostname.

    See: 

    How to migrate the NetBackup catalog information from one platform to another (UNIX to Windows or vice versa), rename a Master Server, cluster an existing Master Server, or merge multiple NetBackup domains.

    You can do it yourself if you keep the same hostname:
