Hi,
We have Backup Exec 2012 and we were running out of space on the C drive so we changed the path to the catalogs to the D drive. Now we need to merge the catalogs.
From what I understand all I need to do is copy the contents of the C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\<serverName> to D:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Catalogs\<serverName>
and then run Catrebuildindex -r
1) Is this correct?
2) I noticed some dot SM files. Do I need to move these aswell?
3) I read that I would still need to do an inventory of the tapes...I beleive this only applies if you are moving from a different server....ie different BEDB. Is this correct?
thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Craig,
Thanks, I had seen that TN...I just wanted to be sure it also applies to merging catalogs...That TN assumes the target directory is empty.
It doesn't mention running the Catrebuildindex -r command...Does that mean we don't need to use it?
Also it doesn't mention anything about the .SM files.
