Upgrade Media Server 6.5.6 - Win2K3 to new hardware / version 7.5.6 - Win2k8 R2
Hello fellow Netbackup users,
I was looking to accomplish the following:
We have an old media server running Win2k3 / 6.5.6 which we would like to upgrade....
We would like to move ...
in that case you can directly install it to 7.5 on Media server using same hostname and ip address but plz do make sure that old media server should be powered off/disconnected from network and all the tape drives shd be zoned new media server and if you have OST verify the communciation with OS devices.
Install netbackup and reconfigure tape devices accordingly.
Alternatively:(with diff ip adress/diff host name)
Add this as a new media server and if everything works fine you can follow the media server decom process for old server
