    hi,

    you have 2 ways to compleate the restore

    1) Import of catalogs

    2) with out Import

     

    ofr Import option, you need to find the list of tapes that are having the data  , move those tapes to the destination Master server and start the Phase 1 and 2 of Imports and then start restore. its time taking process 

    see the below T/N for import Porcess

    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH43584

     

    for sencond option:-

    along with moving the tapes phycisally to the destination , you need to copy the catalogs form source master to desintation master , and then start the restore

    its a pretty quick process.

    check the below doc for detail info

If the Master at the remote site has to have a different name then you cannot do a catalog restore so your only options are to do the "recover without import" or to use de-dupe on both sites and then use AIR to replicate your backups across (far easier than trying to do everything with a standalone tape drive!)
