Migrating NBU policies from windows to linux
Hello. Is there an easy way to migrate just the NBU policies from a windows master server to a linux master server (5230 appliance)? I've tried copying the /usr/openv/netbackup/db/class directory, but I get a socket error.
Thank you!
- open software share on 5230
- copy your windows db folder to incoming patch on 5230
- do not close your share
- copy your files manually from /inst/patch/incoming to /usr/openv/netbackup/db/class.
- make sure folder has correct permission
- you can close your share now (make sure you have netbackup services stop all the time)
- bring up the services and as suggested above make sure to take care of dns and storage unit
Ok. I figured it out. I followed the above steps from "Backup_In_A_Box" but added an addition step.
Thank you for your help!!
Additional step. I ran the dos2unix command on the classes and upon restarting the services, the policies were seen.
