1) When you said "migrate", did you copy the db40 from the PA-RISC to the IA-64?
No. It turns out that the media agent was PA, but the original 6.00 system is IA64 at 11.31
2) Was the PA-RISC one upgraded to DP 6.2? I assume yes.
So the new IA64 box has 6.20 installed using the migration procedure in the Licensing/Install manual, pages 176.
Here's what I did:
I ran omnimigrate.pl -prepare_clients new_server_hostname
Did a IDB backup to tape on the old system.
Restored the IDB files to a temp location on the new server.
Removed the 6.00 client from the new systems.
Installed 6.20 cell manager
Moved the IDB file backup to the standard location.
Ran omnimigrate.pl -configure to configure the IDB and clients.
Added the new 7.0 license so that 6.20 can run normally.
Tested 6.20 and it runs backups and sees the IDB history.
3) If so, can you check the same files?
???
There are files there...how do you check files?
4) Can you try putting in the DP 6.21 patch bundle and rechecking the version.txt files?
OK. I might try that. I don't understand why 6.20 runs just fine with the 6.00 IDB. Is there a separate step that was missed in the Licensing/Install guide? Is there a command to simply convert the IDB so we can then install 7.0?
