Netbackup master server migration

[Rohit_new]

We have an existing Netbackup master server ( Solaris ) with NB 6.5.3.1. We want to migrate it to a different solaris host and want to keep the existing conffigurations intact. Can you please suggest the steps to go ahead with the plan . Thanks

I also have one way to do it..please suggest if thats right : 

Backup the catalog to tape

Installl fresh netbackup on the new host

recover the catalog using bprecover command

Will that work ?

 I would do the master server migration as a normal DR exercise

Netbackup Troubleshooting Guide - Chapter 7 page 533

1. Take a full catalog backup
2. Install Master Server in new box (with same name and ip config)
3. configure robot and devices
4. restore catalog

Why host name and ip need to be same?

I would keep the same name and the same IP address from the old to the new. below artical will describe the reason
