Change Media Owner of DSSU Content

NBUMike

We have migrated our NetBackup environment to new hardware (new host names) and then from 6.5.4 to 7.1.  We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 for master and all media servers.  When tapes were brought over from the old environment I was able to change the media owner by running the bpmedia -movedb command.  Unfortunately, we ran the -allvolumes mistakenly.  Now, while the tapes are okay, backups from after our migration that were going to disk now have the wrong media owner.  Is there a way to change the media owner on those images on disk, whether bpmedia command or other?

Would this command help

 

bpimage -newserver newserver_name [-oldserver oldserver_name] [-id id]

That would mean changing every backup image on the DSSU individually right?  That would probably work, just would take some time :)  Any ideas on changing all images on the DSSU similar to the bpmedia -movedb -allvolumes command?

Use bpimage without -id :

bpimage -newserver <newserver_name> -oldserver <oldserver_name>
