Catalog Recovery Doesn't show client and policies we formed.

[Shehkh4]

How to perform Catalog recovery so that we can see our policies and client in Host Properties?

[StefanosM]

Treat your restore as a normal file restore, not a catalog recovery.

• go to "backup archive and restore."
• As the client and the destination, select the master server.
• NBU_catalog as the policy type
• Navigate to c:\program files\veritas\netbackup\db\class (or wherever NetBackup was installed).
• Choose the policies you want to restore.
• restore them

[Shehkh4]

So, you are saying After doing Normal Catalog Recovery from the DR files the next step is we have to restore he policies from the Backup, Archive and Restore tab, right?

[StefanosM]

A friendly advice.
You really need to take the netbackup administration and advanced administration courses.

If you want to reinstall NetBackup entirely, then you must do a catalog recovery. This will restore everything including policies.
But if you delete one or more policies, then you can follow the procedure I posted.

[Shehkh4]

The problem is that it doesn't restores NetBackup policies that is the main problem, that How to do a Catalog recovery that restores everything, and the policies can you explain me this.

[StefanosM]

If you follow this procedure, everything will be restored.
