Hi Ahlip,
i did the traditional restore based on the below.
1. Reinstall the media server on a fresh OS installation using the extact computer name and disk layout structure.
2. Install netbackup binaries.
3. From master server i trigger the full system restore.
4. From master server the restore status is 100% successfull.
5. On the media server i can see that the full restore has "put back" the rest of the media server programs like winzip and data.
6. Proceed to restart Media server.
7. After Media server restarted i was unable to login as the last full backup is done when the media server is part of the windows domain.
8. But i can login locally if i change the logon option to Local Computer.
Am i right on the above steps? If i have did it wrongly please kindly correct me. Before the days of BMR this has been the way i used to recover windows server.
Another question what was "restore the media server catalogs" that you referred to? I did the reinstallation of the media server and proceed shortly to full recovery. The master server still holds the catalog content of that media server.
Best rgds,
