Restore Netbackup tapes from standalone to clustered instance with same name
Hello! Hope this one is easy? Is it possible to restore a tape from netbackup server 7.x (standalone, non clustered) to netbackup 8.0 (new, clustered instance but same name). I understand catalogs can't be replayed from standalone to clustered instances and need professional services to manipulate the same but what if I want to restore a tape or two. I always have the offline non clustered server that I can power up but ideally looking to restore random tapes once a new NBU cluster is deployed? I'm aware one has to import the tapes (if no catalog) but need confirmation if a new, clustered (and higher version) server can create the necessary catalog entry from a tape created in a standalone netbackup server and if yes, need to also understand what the conditions/caveats are if possible? On a related note, I suppose we need to uninstall and reinstall the remote clients/agents (or will push upgrade work?) as the new master/media server (non-enterprise netbackup edition) is now clustered. Many thanks in advance!

Restore VM Windows 2012 wouldn't boot
Dears, I'm facing a problem when I restore a Windows 2012 VM. The restore finished successfully, but the VM will not boot. Joined the screenshot. I did the following : Check the VSS is running I restart the VM → the VM boot normaly I backed up the VM and restore it after it was restarted. → the same problem. I clone the VM and backed up the clone and restore it. → the restore of the cloned VM boot normally! I update the OS → didn’t fix the problem VMwre Version : 5.0 Netbackup version : 7.7.3 on Redhat Linux 6.8 Does any one have a hint on how to fix or troubleshoot this issue. Thanks in advance. Best regards,

Need a script to get size of the last successful full backup of each NBU client
Hello, I'm running NBU 7.7.2 on a Windows 2012 R2 Server, and I'm after a script which can email me a spreadsheet each month showing me the size of the last successful full backup for each client (partial backups included). Is something like this possible? I also have OPS Centre Analytics if there is any SQL magic that can be done on that. Example: Client Last Successfull Full Backup date Last Successful Full Backup Size(GB) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Client 1 18/08/2016 100 Client 2 13/08/2016 85 Client 3 14/07/2016 90
