NB 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.

Good afternoon. Yesterday I carried out an agentless VMware recovery. The recovery was only partially completed, of the 342,000 files 76 were not restored. Is there a log that will give me a list of the 76 files that were not restored? I have been looking in/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/tar/agentless/ but cannot find a definitive list of the failed files. Thank you.617Views0likes1CommentHow to recover data from Amazon S3 with a different server?
Hey We are in a bit of a situation here at my company. Long story short our data center infrastructure failed. Our Backup exec server (Version 20.1) was backing up our data to the AWS S3 cloud with encryption. Unfortunately our Backup exec server was effected as well. So I had to set up a new backup exec server. Now I have backup exec installed and I have added the database encryption key from our previous backup exec server to the data directory folder. I also have added the credentials to our AWS cloud account. The problem is I don't see a way for me to retrieve the data that I have in the cloud. The restore button is grayed out and when I click on the Amazon account bucket I only see details and no information or process to restore about the data that's already there. Would anybody please be able to guide me or inform me if i'm missing a step of if this is even possible?942Views0likes1CommentRecovery Without import (very awkward situation)
Hello, I have run into very awkward sitaution here, our client is running Netbackup 6.0 (i know its EOL) on solaris and they recently purchased Netbackup 8.1.2. So they want to import all the Backup info(all client and their backups) from old server into this new server so that if any request of old restore comes, it will be served from this new server. Is it even possible to achieve this!!!? I have been reading about the "Recovery without import" white paper and it says somthing about cat_export and cat_import step. but the problem is there is no Cat_export command on source (NB 6.0) server. I have done the step where it sas to copy the contents of /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images to the destination server. I cant brows the backup of any client of old server as there isn't any info about them in NBU GUI (BAR window). i do have the backup tape of catalog of old server. Waiting for your kind response.Solved1.5KViews0likes5Comments
