I have successfully copied all jobs from old to new server and merged the catalogs.
Is there a command to copy my media sets and media locations from the old to the new server?

Hi Joji,
You moved your catalogs to a new machine, but you did not move the database too? Was that intentional? If you move the database and job histories, then you will have the media information as well since it is stored in the database. I have a blog that covers doing just this. Take a look and let us know if you still need input, or if that will solve your issue.

If you did not move it, but just want media information, I would like to understand why you are doing the selective move. What is the reason for not moving all of your data?
Thanks,
Nick

As you have already merged your catalog you can probably just copy the configuraation of backup exec referrig the following document

RahulG: I ran into a problem: I followed the steps to create the config file. Step 5: Browse/Enter the desired location of the configuration file and click OK. I navigated to the desktop to save the file there. I named the file ConfigFiles022012. After I clicked OK the job started and saw finished 100%. But when I checked my desktop, the file was not there. I ran the utility/job couple of times and got the same results. I tried a different location and got the same results. Also, is it normal that the BE services were all stopped during this process?
Thanks.

Is there any Error generated in the event log ?
Can you check the following Go to Tools -> License Keys and Installations

Yes. Please see below:
Source: BEDBG
Process beserver.exe requested memory dump but the maximum number of memory dumps has already been reached.
Source: .NET Runtime 2.0 Error
Faulting application beserver.exe, version 13.0.5204.122, stamp 4eecd3d2, faulting module beserver.exe, version 13.0.5204.122, stamp 4eecd3d2, debug? 0, fault address 0x0049c2e0.
I went through the wizard. The "Copy Server Configurations" is grayed out but has a check mark on it. I also did a "repair" using the installation CD.

BE2010 uses .netframework 3.5 SP1, try repairing .netframework

RahulG: unfortunately repairing, uninstallling and reinstalling .NET Framework 3.5 did not fix the problem.
Do you have other suggestions?

You should proabaly log a support case for the same> I had seen the similar isssue in the past and it was resolved by uninstalling all the version of >net framework and then reinstalling it .

Thanks RahulG. I did open a support case last week. It's been more than 5 days and they do not have any resolutions for me.
