[Veritas-bu] Merging two slave servers

[Patrick Boyle]

I am assuming here that the "decommissioned" server had its
own robot/library, correct?

What would you have to be concerned with if you have
a single Library shared between the master and a single slave?
The master server is the single robotics controller,
the slave server does not have a library attached, it is
using drives within the Master Servers Library?

We are heading in this direction in the next month,
I appreciate any help provided.

This list rocks, the Script Vault is a great addition, thanks
to all that contribute, all the way around.

Enjoy all.

Find out all the tapes assigned to the old slave server, run
bpmedia -movedb on all of them.  You will need both the old server and the
new server up running during this command.

I assume your E-4500 is going to assume the hostname of one of the old
server, and you're going to decommision the other old one.
