I have read all the posts on this subject and i think things have changed in the newer versions of NB.
I need to copy a few dozen policies from a windows backup master to an AIX backup master. The old technique of copying the class subdircectory wont work since the OS'es are different. And the technique of 'right click, copy' a policy, change server, then paste the policy doesnt seem to work ('copy' never appears as an option). Perhaps that was the old java console?
Anyways - any thoughts on how to copy some polcies from a windows master to an AIX master?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Let me try that. I guess I assumed incorreectly that the OS diffenence would not allow that.

Are you aware of the fact that Veritas has dropped support for AIX master and media servers as from 8.1.2?
NBU 8.x OS SCL: http://www.veritas.com/docs/000115691
Maybe better to stay on your Windows master, or else migrate to Linux master.
Veritas developed the NbServerMigrator tool to help you migrate your NetBackup master server. NbServerMigrator migrates your source master server to a target master server running on the same NetBackup version. More information about the NetBackup Master Server Migration Guide 1.0 is available.: https://www.veritas.com/content/support/en_US/doc/MasterServerMigration

Yes - our two AIX master servers that will have to get to 8.1.1 and then stay there. (not good for us).
