Thank you for your quick reply, Marianne! Unfortunately, we can't use the same hostname for new master server because the new master server is on the same Active Directory domain as the current master server. So we have to recreate backup policies manually using GUI? Is there any method(like using command line or something) for bulk backup policy creation?

      >@yasu2019 , Why would you need 2 separate master servers in the same environment?

      We are planning migration to a new HCI vmware vSphere environment and we need NetBackup server both in old and new vSphere environment.

      Anyway, Thank you for your advice, Marianne! That was really helpful!
