Hello,
I need help to cleanly remove 5230 appliance configured as a media server from NBU domain.
Currently we have Windows based master server and 2 5230s as media servers. One of the appliances is being used for backups and the other one strictly for duplications. I am trying to remove the second one and reconfigure it as a master in our DR site and use AIR for replication.
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
You can use bpexdate to expire all images on the DR appliance (bpexpdate -stype server_type [-dp disk_pool_name [-dv disk_volume]] [-nodelete] [-notimmediate] [-force_not_complete] [-M master_server,...]).
After that you can use nbdecommission to remove the media server/appliance from the NetBackup Domain.
