Hi Team,
Upgraded Netbackup master server from 7.1.0.3 to 7.5 and took catalog backup before migration.
Now due to certain reasons after five days, downgraded master server from 7.5 to 7.1.0.3 but catalog backup is failing with segmentation fault.
Recovered the catalog with catalog backup taken before upgradation 7.5.
Please let me know how to recover catalog in netbackup 7.1.0.3 taken from 7.5.
Below are details:
Netbackup server : previously 7.5 and now 7.1.0.3
Os Solaris 10.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
You cannot recover a 7.5 catalog on a 7.1 install. Versions must be the same, down the the maintenance release.

No, impossible.
The NBDB schema is different at 7.5.then 7.1.0.3 so there is absolutely no way to recover to a different version.
The catalog will only recover to the same version it was taken from.

ok, Is it possible to recover by any other way.
OR is there is any way to take backup of some files before upgradation to recover from this.

Maybe you could tell us your reasons for wanting to downgrade?
