Hi,
Got a query on a issue I am facing.
I am migrating clients with same policy schedules from EMC Networker to NBU Master.
Is there any way to migrate policies from Networker to NBU through cmd line, because through GUI I need to manually fill all the attributes.
or is there any way to create bunch of policies with same attributes through cmd line or GUI. I am doing this through copy to new option in GUI and it is cearting only one policy at atime.
Thanks,
Abaig.

Let us be very clear - you cannot migrate from one product to the other.

You could do this ... copy an existing policy
Here are my policies
root@womble scripts $ bppllist

query of your answer is NO.... you can't migrate networker client to NetBackup that way.
You need to create new policy in NBU.

There is NO interaction or migration between different backup products.
It is unfortunately 'start from scratch'.... Not possible to migrate or import backup images either...
Welcome to this community! I hope that we will be able to assist you with queries/issues/etc.
You may want to have a look at 'Handy Links' in my signature. As a start, download all the manuals for your NBU version.
Good luck!

Thank you Marianne.

For Example Most of the policies have same schedule for backup and I can duplicate that single policy multiple times and can add clients and paths respectively.

Just create your initial policy in the GUI & treat it as a template.
<right-click> Copy to New Policy...
then 'fill in the blanks' as it were.
Additionally, for a little later refinement if needed, you can also copy clients, schedules & backup selections from one policy to another with the 'standard' copy'n'paste
