Redirecting Restore to a Different Media Server
Hi, I would like to ask if it is possible to change the destination media server for my restore. When I perform a restore, the media server used was the same one that performed the original backup. I am planning to decommission all currently active media servers and use the Master Server as the Media Server as well. How can I change the ownership of the backup image or media to a different media server? Master server Information: NBU Version: 10.3.0.1 OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Standard Thank you in advance.27Views0likes1CommentIs there a way to backup the OS through NetBackup?
I am curious if it is possible to back up the OS using only netbackup software without using bmr or vsr. There are system state and shadow copy components in the backup selection, and I am wondering if it is possible to backup and restore the server OS through these. If you know any ideas or technote addresses, please let me know.79Views0likes2Commentsrestoring file from linux source to windows target; is possible?
Hi people: We are using NBU 10.x on windows 2022 media/master server (both roles same server). Have a mix of windows and linux clients. We need to restore a file from /wrk/app/app-baks.tar to a windows server on e:\wrk\app. My co-worker running this restore tells me that NBU GUI is telling that restore path is invalid. Tried e:/wrk/app but don't work. And seems that isn't supported. Any idea to accomplish this task ? Maybe UNC or and NFS on the same server? Hope to being clear.193Views0likes4CommentsRestore full folder with permissions to another location

Hi I want to automate a weekly restore of the most recent full backup of a SQL production database, to a development instance. The problem I'm having is finding the job ID of the most recent backup. I've tried using bpimagelist bpimagelist -pt MS-SQL-Server -hoursago 48 -client Server1.com -idonly -st FULL but I can't differentiate between the databases that are backed up on that instanace. Does anyone kjnow how to do this, or does someone have a better way to automate the restore. Cheers AlexSolved701Views0likes2Commentsincomplete restore 2850
