Hi
I need advice how to move backup exec 2015 FP3 from windows 2008R2 to new server with windows 2012R2 and with new servername. I have installed backup exec 2015 FP3 on the new server.
I have read this https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH129826 (How to migrate Backup Exec to another server with a different Windows OS version.)
and
I haver read this https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH67296 (How to migrate / move Backup Exec from one version to another on a different server with a differentserver name)
None of the articles match my case with different Windows OS verion and different servername.
Has anyone out there any solution how I should do?

Irrespective of the command you are running for the rename, I hope you have exported the DEK from the old server as you will need it on the new server.
BTW I think NEWSERVERNAME needs ot be surround by characters in the command
