Have a new MS 2003 server, installed SCSI card and DLT tape drive from old

server to new. How do I get the tape library on to the new server so I can

read and use tapes created on the old box?

Hello gold_exp,

 

The server has installed the hardware correctly and you can see it? What

backup software do you use?

 

Best regards

Re: NT Backup migration?

 

I can see the SCSI card and tape drive fine. I'm using the NT backup, I want

to be able to use tapes created on the old server. Is there a file to move

from old to new with the catalog/library inventory info making the tapes

useable?

Hello gold_exp,

 

Check if you can find the catalogs here

 

%SystemRoot%\Documents and Settings\Account\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows

NT\NTBackup\catalogs

 

Where Account is the user account that is logged on to Windows while it is

performing the backup. These catalogs typically all appear on the Restore

tab in NTBackup so that you can select which parts of the backup set you

want to restore.

 

Best regards
