Hi Guys,
I would like to build test envairoment for Netbackup 7.7.3. with new hardware.
Currently We are using Netbackup 7.7.3 with Windows 2008 R2. I would like to export catalog into new harware with windows 2012 R2.
How can I export the catalog from version 7.7.3.
Should I change the new netbackup server same name as current netbackup? any prosedure for this?
Regards
It is called catalog recovery.
The new server must have the same hostname, Same NBU version must be installed and in the same installation directory.

Dear Marrianne,
thank you very much for your reply.
I would like to use new hardware as test server. I dont want to shut down my prod servers.
Is it possible??
Best Regards
You can build your test environment in a different network that cannot be reached by the production network.
The hostname of the master must be the same for catalog recovery to work, but IP addresses can be different.
