Looks like I missed a few key steps. Luckily, I can bring the old Media Server back up and take care of this.
Thanks for all the help...

It sounds like you may have to use bpmedia command and specify the media ID from the <retired_server> to your Master Server. Take a look at this: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH52021 <http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH5202 1> An extract from the document under Step 3: If both <old_server> and <new_server> are at NetBackup 6.0MP7 or later, or NetBackup 6.5.2 or later, run the following command: bpmedia -movedb -allvolumes -oldserver <old_server> -newserver <new_server> Simon ________________________________ From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of BeDour, Wayne Sent: Wednesday, October 13, 2010 3:01 PM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Restores timing out after retiring a media server All: Our environment, HP-UX 11-31 currently running one master / media server on NetBackup 6.5.2. We are running mostly unix / Linux backups and a couple windows b/u's thrown in for good measure. We were running with a master and a media server and have retired the media server. I have changed all the policies to use the master as the media server and am having no problems with backups. The problem is when I try to restore something that was backed up when we had the separate media server. For the Source Client in the restore gui, if I don't point to the old media server, I don't see the files that I need to restore. If I point to the old media server, I see everything I need but because the machine is down, the restore times out. Did I miss something in the process of retiring the media server that is causing this? Anyone have any ideas / suggestions? Thanks in advance....
