Hi All,
I have been facing an issue with catalog recovery. Symantec was not able to fix that.
I had taken a catalog backup of Master<auspxxxx)to a single tape CA0080(LTO6)and decommissioned the auspxxxx. That catalog backup had two images. Unfortunately we got a request to restore for a server from auspxxxx. So we build a vm with same name, configuration(NBU 7.6.0.3) and OS(SUSE Linux). It does not have any tape drives attached to it. what i did was, I imported CA0080 into my other Master(cmsxxxx), duplicated the catalog images to disk and mounted the disk path to auspxxxx server. I was able to import and create DRfile. When i recover the catalog(bprecover -wizard -copy 2), it was able recover to configuration and images from one image and could not recover NBDB from other image. it says Failed to recover NBDB as it was looking for CA0080 to mount. Not sure why it is looking for that tape even though we have same images from disk set as primary copy. I contacted symantec support for this but no luck. Could you anyone help getting this fixed.
