Moving a Master Server to a new machine involving a host name change
Hi Team, We are planning to migrate the Netbackup server from old hardware to new Hardware. But we are planning to change the new server name and also planning to upgrade the Netbackup version ( from 7.5.7 to 7.7.1). Please guide me what are all steps I need to take care before doing this. Note: - There are no media server on current Netbackup server. It has only local disk storage ( 4 TB). The new one have 16 TB by MSDP. Both are same OS version ( Red hat Linux ) Thanks for your advance help.Solved3.8KViews0likes10CommentsMigration to another domain
Hello community, we have a Netbackup-configuration that comprises of a separate master- and media server and a library. Our backup-scope comprises: -NDMP (from our NAS) -VM's (from our NAS) that are controlled by EsXi-servers and managed with VCenter. -Physical Windows Servers All servers run on Windows, by the way. We need to migrate with everything (servers/PC's/user-accounts) to another domain, so the old domain can be switched off in a few months. Several servers have already been migrated and now we face the task of migrating our Netbackup-servers. Can we just go ahead with it or are there specific measures to be taken ? I have already seen similar posts in which was advised to look at: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH58218 and http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH38988 , but they are dead-end streets, and I cannot find anything of the kind here at Veritas. Please advise, Kind regards, Jaap2.2KViews0likes7CommentsNB Master Server migration to the new HW
Hello, I would like to migrate my current NB Master Server 10.1.1 running on Windows 2012 R2 (VMware) to the brand new server running on Windows 2022 (VMware), whole env. includes over 20 Dell DataDomains as target storages and over 20 Media Servers. Are there any general recommendations? Do you have any experience with similar migration? I found following migration toolhttps://www.veritas.com/content/support/en_US/downloads/update.UPD162444but I could not find any real cases how it works and so on. Other way how to do it would be catalog recovery but that would take too much time which I cannot afford at the moment. Or does it make a sense to build a new NB Master Server, do the re-configuration there of the storages, Media servers, policies etc. and leaving the old NB Master Server running behind till the backed-up data reach expiration point? Or is there any way how to export the configurations? How does it work with the certificates? Is it possible to have same token on both old and new NB Master Servers? Thank you.
