We are trying to migrate our NSR Server 6.1.1 from a single W2K SP2 machine to a MSCS Cluster formed by 2 physical W2K SP2 machines.
We tried the migration a few weeks ago. I will not describe in details the migration but the important steps were:
nsrck -L6 old server
copy of the entire nsr directory (except nsr\bin) from single machine to cluster disk (shared disk on cluster))
nsrck -L6 new server
Everything seemed to be successful at least at the beginning. Indeed, we were able to take a backup of the cluster nodes (physical & virtual machines). We were able to backup a first savegroup. But when we started a second group then we had a lot of problems.
At once, all resources within NetWorker cluster were frozen, even writing and moving forward on tapes mounted on drives.
We had to perform a fallback to the single machine.
Has anyone performed such a migration ?
Thanks.
Regards,
