Tape library and drives firmware upgrade
Hello Experts, Planning to upgrade Tape library and drives Firmware version. Tape library is connected to media server and used for LTR. First backup going to disk and then duplicated to tape for LTR. 1. Do we need to stop the Netbackup services on master and all media server(including appliances)? 2. or do we need to stop Netbackup services on robot control host media servers? 3. Not required to stop Netbackup services on any server? Note: Library vendor request for 1 hour down timenbauditreport gives error

Offline Primary server recovery
Hi I would like to test the recovery of a production NetBackup 10.3 Primary Server but do this 'offline' so as not to interrupt the production environment. I plan to build a new Windows VM on an isolated network to allow me to create it with the same server name and IP address as the original. I will then take a catalog backup to a basic disk storage unit onto a local drive on the production NBU server.. I'm hoping I can then copy the catalog backup files, associated .drpkg file and catalog DR file to my test VM which will give me everything I need to recover the NBU primary server - should this work? There will not be any other servers on this network (no AD, DNS, or Internet access) but I can use 'host' files If necessary. Our environment is small with just this single NBU Primary server that also acts as a media server. Once I have configured the VM with the same name and IP address, I will install the NetBackup binaries to the same location (D:\Program Files in our environment) and also select the installation in DR mode and use the .drpkg file. The nbwebsvc user is local to the server and not an AD account - so I will create this as a local account on the test server. I will also ensure the volume used by the Disk storage unit (on the production NBU server) also exists on the NBU recovery VM and that the catalog backup files are copied over to the same path and folder. Next I will, run the catalog recovery and select the DR file that will be copied locally with the catalog backup files. Question - Do I first need to create the disk storage unit manually and also run an 'Import' on the catalog backup files before the start the catalog recovery process? Or will it simply work if I just make sure the backup image files exist in the same path as detailed within the DR file? I'm just doing this to 'practice' the process should it need to be done for real, but I just want to make sure it 'should' work using this approach so I can troubleshoot any errors. many thanks
