How to transfer settings to a new PC

[P120t]

Hi all,

I just installed BE8.5 on a replacement server, running Windows 2000, but before I dump the original NT-4 machine can someone please tell me how to transfer my existing settings (backup jobs/schedule, media management & drive pools etc.) to the new software installation? I guess I could reconfigure this stuff manually but would much rather avoid the pain.

TIA

Howard.

Just install 8.5 on the new server.
Stop the backup exec services on each end and copy over the backup exec\nt\pvl.mdb and backup exec\nt\data and \catalogs folders.

Start services back up
