Looking for confirmation and/or How to for restoring a BE 12.5d Media Server.
I have my 12.5d Media server (works great!) however the current disk configuration is somewhat less than optimal. So What I plan to do is do a full backup of my Media server to Tape, then tear down this server, re-do the hardrive configuration and then re-install BE 12.5d. What I am concerned about is that I don't want to have to re-create all of my policies or lose my catalogs etc....
If I restore from Tape, I figure that after the cataloging is complete, I will restore my \\Program Files\Symantec\BackupExec data to a "Restore Folder" and then find a Utility that I can run that I can direct to look into this "Restore" directory and restore all relevevant data such as licenses, policies, catalogs etc...
I think what I am asking in a nutshell, is How much am I going to have to re-input by hand vs retrieve from the tape and if this is the case, what order/method or Utilities can I utilize to help me make this a painless as possible.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
